Les Trois mousquetaires by Alexandre Dumas
Monday, October 13th, 2008This is not Les Trois Mousquetaires of Alexandre Dumas; it is “adapted in simple French by R. de Roussy de Sales.” It includes marginal notes, usually not on the most challenging vocabulary in the paragraph, and a set of writing exercises in English in the back.
However, this is a good adaptation, if you are looking for something to challenge rusty French skills.
Dumas’ characters and action are exciting and compellingly drawn, and the boundary between history and fiction is blurred enough to make Dumas’ version the more persuasive.
This is still a terrific story.

Le Comte de Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas (1802-1870)
Saturday, May 17th, 2008Language: French
Edmond Dantès, a young seaman with a promising future, is arrested at his wedding ceremony under calomnious charges, and locked up in the Chateau d’If for 14 years. During this time, he secretly meets another detainee, l’Abbé Faria, an erudite believed to be insane, who becomes his friend and teacher, and who, upon his death, gives Edmond the secret to a hidden treasure.
Dantès then manages to escape, almost drowning in the process, and is believed by all to be dead. With the knowledge and the treasure transmitted by l’abbé Faria, and his own wish for revenge, Edmond Dantès plots the downfall of his enemies under the identity of the Count of Monte-Cristo.
