The Count of Monte Cristo: Goodreads LinkĬontent Notes: Depictions of death, injustice, illness and living in destitute conditions.įor a 1200 page novel, I am finding The Count of Monte Cristo to be a unique read. Use the Goodreads link below to learn more about the book as a whole. The discussion does give an idea about where the story is going with minimum spoilers. Since this is not a regular discussion (we still have about 1000 pages to go in the book!), I’m not including the synopsis. My edition is the one translated by Robin Buss. We have not touched on the language aspect in this first part of the book discussion, but I plan to bring it up when we finish the book. I am reading this book with my bookstagram friend, Kelly, who is actually reading it in Potuguese. So far, as I am reading this, I am telling him the story line and at the end of Part 1, he says I am 30 min into the movie. The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas is a well known book, though the reason Clinton got it for me on my birthday last year was because he loves the latest movie adaptation. After doing multiple buddy reads with Ariel, this is the first time when I am reading a classic with a friend. I find that longer books are best read with a companion and a pen and paper.
