Le Chevalier de Sainte-Hermine

Published by Fence under Books

Lucretia Again posted this great news. A new Alexandre Dumas novel has been found and it to be published.

Believed to be the great writer’s last work, The Knight of Sainte-Hermine - a swashbuckling tale of derring-do in the finest Dumas tradition - has not been heard of since 1869, the year before the author’s death, when it was published in instalments in a French newspaper called Le Moniteur Universal.

I’ll admit I’ve never actually read The Three Muskateers, although I’ve seen numerous film & TV versions but I loved The Count of Monte Christo.

One response so far
