The first volume of The Hunchback of Notre Dame by Victor Hugo.
Well back at high school we’ve had a list of books for obligatory reading. The Hunchback of Notre Dame was one of them and because I love spoilers I read it after I knew what’s the story about. Everyone, including my lovely teacher, consider the first volume very boring and tends to skip it. As there’s no surprise I tend to be different from others I’ve found it much more interesting as the second one. It was so well described as if I was browsing the streets with writer and admiring the architecture which disappeared with Napoleon’s yearning for greatness in destroying most of it to create those enormous boulevards. First time I visited Paris was when I was 28 years old and I was kind of disappointed from it, didn’t understand that hype it was getting but with each new visit I start to like it. I still prefer other cities and find it pitiful that all the beauty and charm had to give place to more buildings and more concrete.
