What this book is about

Le roman classique d'Alexandre Dumas de 1844 suit Edmond Dantès, un jeune marin faussement emprisonné au château d'If. Après s'être évadé et avoir découvert un trésor sur l'île de Monte Cristo, il revient à Paris sous une identité secrète pour se venger de ceux qui l'ont trahi. C'est l'une des œuvres de fiction les plus lues au monde, une saga épique de trahison, d'emprisonnement et de justice personnelle.
