    Description

    Folio Society
    The Phantom of the Opera
    Gaston Leroux
    Illustrated by
    Taylor Dolan
    Introduced by
    Simon Callow
    Translated by
    David Coward
    The vaults of the Paris Opéra hide a hideous secret, and it’s revealed with theatrical flourish in this lavish new Folio edition.
    Mysterious goings-on at the Paris opera house are brushed aside by its new owners, but the old-timers know that the resident ghost is more than an urban legend. One of the greatest gothic horror novels ever written, Gaston Leroux’s atmospheric adventure still chills first-time readers, then lures them back time and time again. Long eclipsed by the huge popularity of its musical adaptation, the book once again takes centre stage in this lavish new edition that drips with macabre imagery and theatrical allusion.
