Аудиокнига: Собор парижской Богоматери

The novel «Notre Dame Cathedral» — depicts Paris of the 15th century and the great creation of the Gothic. Hugo’s legend is equal in rights with history: “The book has no claims to history, except perhaps to describe with a certain knowledge and a certain diligence, but only in an overview and in snatches, the state of morals, beliefs, laws, arts, and finally, civilization in the fifteenth century … However, this is not the main thing in the book. If she has one merit, it is that she is a work of imagination, whim and fantasy. «

The broadest popularity of the novel is ensured by the author’s view of the eternal confrontation between two world principles — good and evil, mercy and cruelty, compassion and intolerance, feeling and reason.
