Hi, I am from Glendale, California and I attend school at Clark Magnet High School; Anways, I started reading The Count of Monte Cristo When My Mom refereed me to this book and at first I was kind of skeptical about the factthat this book was really long and which translated from French. Then really got into the book and finished reading it in a week. This book is filled with philosophy, ideology, divinity and almost every other kind of study did has to do with our everyday life. Dante, who is the main character and the hero of the book is a mastermind of planning his attack though he waits for years and years and trusts God as his usher through the process of him taking vengeance on the people who have done him bad. I know thatthere are many translated versions of this book, but I have read the one translated by Robin Buss. The font on this book is very small and hard to see, but still if you can not find others, I would advise anyone to read this book. I personally think thatthis book is a little bit too complicated for a teen audience, but do not let my words stop you if you want to try this book. Alexandre Dumas has written many fiction novels Including The Count of Monte Cristo, but a think this one is his best novel and one of my favorites so. If you really want to read this book and comprehend every detail, I suggest you take notes and did write down all the names Because there are people who bounce from section-to-section and some of them have many identities.
