by Gaston LeRoux (Author)
La aparición de esta obra en 1910 revolucionó el género de novela de misterio y nos regaló uno de los arquetipos más fascinantes de la literatura del siglo XX: el del genio horriblemente desfigurado que anida bajo la superficie de la gran ciudad, sucumbe al amor apasionado y maquina una terrible venganza. Mezcla de romanticismo y novela gótica, esta intensa historia de desamor, música y deformidades ha dado origen a multitud de adaptaciones, desde el musical de Broadway hasta el cine alternativo estadounidense. Erik y su máscara se han convertido por derecho propio en iconos de la cultura popular, y nos proporcionan una lectura inolvidable.
Equal parts romance and gothic novel, this engrossing tale of unrequited love, musical genius, and physical deformity has been the basis for many a film, television, radio, and stage adaptation, including the immensely popular Broadway musical. Since the novel's publication in 1910, Erik and his mask have become true pop culture icons, and the tortured genius' tragic story continues to captivate the hearts of readers.Author Biography
