內容簡介：
Book Jacket Status: Jacketed Alexandre Dumas''s epic novel of
justice, retribution, and self-discovery--one of the most
enduringly popular adventure tales ever written--in a newly revised
translation. This beloved novel tells the story of Edmond Dantes,
wrongfully imprisoned for life in the supposedly impregnable sea
fortress, the Chateau d''If. After a daring escape, and after
unearthing a hidden treasure revealed to him by a fellow prisoner,
he devotes the rest of his life to tracking down and punishing the
enemies who wronged him. Though a brilliant storyteller, Dumas was
given to repetitions and redundancies; this slightly streamlined
version of the original 1846 English translation speeds the
narrative flow while retaining most of the rich pictorial
descriptions and all the essential details of Dumas''s intricately
plotted and thrilling masterpiece.
