Notre-Dame de Paris

Day 13 of the 30 Day Challenge - A Fictional Book

It's just a coincidence that 2 of my most fave books were written by Victor Hugo: Les Miserables and Notre-Dame de Paris.



Notre-Dame de Paris is more popularly known as The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and is one of the saddest love stories I've known. I've always looked at myself as someone like the Beast (in Beauty and the Beast), and as Quasimodo.

The animated feature released in 1996 was based on the novel but the story was changed by Disney for the young audience, as the original ending of the novel was very tragic.


Why was I not made of stone -- like thee?
- Quasimodo
