Beschreibung

Designed to appeal to the book lover, the Macmillan Collector's Library is a series of beautifully bound pocket-sized gift editions of much loved classic titles. Bound in real cloth, printed on high quality paper, and featuring ribbon markers and gilt edges, Macmillan Collector's Library are books to love and treasure.

Strange things are going on at the Paris Opera House: a mysterious phantom - a skeleton in dinner dress - is wreaking havoc amongst the singers and the backstage staff. When new managers take over, and dismiss the rumours of the Opera Ghost, the terror really begins. Who is the mysterious figure stalking the stage at night? How can he be everywhere at once, and enter and leave locked rooms at will? And what is his connection to the beautiful and talented young soloist Christine?

The Phantom of the Opera is best known perhaps through its many stage and screen adaptations, but Gaston Leroux's original text outdoes them all in its Gothic tension and its haunting horror.

With an afterword by Peter Harness.
