I enjoyed The Three Musketeers, but the Dumas book that I really love is The Count of Monte Cristo. Dumas fils wrote some goodies too and my favorite of his is The Lady of the Camillas. Reply #1. Oct 04 22, 9:37 AM |

'The Count of Monte Cristo' is also a great Dumas book. Dumas is my very favorite author. Reply #2. Oct 04 22, 10:42 AM |

It's hard for me to pick one favorite author - would probably go with Balzac. His Pere Goriot is one of my very favorite books. Many of my favorites are French even though I have to read in translation. Reply #3. Oct 04 22, 11:03 AM |

It's a long one, Jacquilyn - although you have to be careful as so many of the library editions, especially if they are older ones are heavily abridged. Reply #5. Oct 26 22, 9:48 AM |

I love The Count of Monte Cristo. Once you get a few chapters in, you are hooked. Don't be scared of the size Reply #6. Oct 26 22, 11:23 PM |

I read "Count" years ago and although I had loved the Robert Donat movie, I found it (dare I say it as a classic book lover) kind of boring. Maybe I should give it another go soon! Reply #9. Jan 19 23, 2:30 PM |
