The Three Musketeers (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition)
by Alexandre Dumas, Tom Gauld (Illustrator), Richard Pevear (Translator, Introduction)
A major new translation of one of the most enduring works of literature, from the award- winning, bestselling co-translator of Anna Karenina-with a spectacular, specially illustrated cover
The Three Musketeers is the most famous of Alexandre Dumas’s historical novels and one of the most popular adventure stories ever written. Now in a bracing new translation, this swashbuckling epic chronicles the adventures of d’Artagnan, a brash young man from the countryside who journeys to Paris in 1625 hoping to become a musketeer and guard to King Louis XIII. Before long he finds treachery and court intrigue-and also three boon companions: the daring swordsmen Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. Together they strive heroically to defend the honor of their queen against the powerful Cardinal Richelieu and the seductive spy Milady.
The Lady of the Camellias (Penguin Classics)
by Alexandre Dumas, Liesl Schillinger (Translator), Julie Kavanagh (Introduction)
The landmark novel that inspired Verdi’s opera La Traviata, in a sparkling new translation published to coincide with a major new biography of the real-life “Lady of the Camellias”
One of the greatest love stories of all time and the inspiration for Verdi’s opera La Traviata and the Oscar-winning musical Moulin Rouge!, The Lady of the Camellias tells the story of Marguerite Gautier, the most beautiful, brazen, and expensive courtesan in all of Paris. Known to all as “the Lady of the Camellias” because she is never seen without her favorite flowers, she leads a glittering life of endless parties and aristocratic balls, with the richest men in France flocking to her boudoir to lay their fortunes at her feet. But despite having many lovers, she has never really loved—until she meets Armand Duval, young, handsome, and from a lower social class, and yet hopelessly in love with Marguerite.
This new translation—the first in English in more than twenty-five years—is by New York Times Book Review critic Liesl Schillinger and features an introduction by Julie Kavanagh, the acclaimed biographer of the courtesan Marie Duplessis, the lover of Alexandre Dumas fils who inspired the novel.
