The tragic but doomed love of Marguerite and Armand became one of the great love stories from its first publication in 1848. In this sound dramatization of the consumptive heroine's ultimate sacrifice, the story of passion and conflict is fresh and compelling as when it was first written.

This is the hauntingly romantic story of Marguerite Gautier, a Parisian courtesan who falls in love with a young man of modest means.

The story begins when the narrator, Armand Duval, tells how he met the beautiful young temptress at a theatrical performance.

Alexandre Dumas écrit La Route de Varennes dans un souci de vérité historique.

Alexandre Dumas signe ici un un petit roman aussi instructif que réjouissant.

Un des premiers romans d'Alexandre Dumas, "Pauline" s'inscrit dans la veine gothique du début du XIXème siècle annonçant le futur "Comte de Monté-Christo". Qui est cette élégante et pâle jeune femme que l'on croise en compagnie d'Alfred de Nerval, cet amoureux silencieux qui la protège comme un frère ? C'est ce que le narrateur nous fait découvrir au cours de ce récit empreint de romantisme dans un décor médiéval, une abbaye en ruine, des passages secrets.

Thirty years after their first adventures in The Three Musketeers, we find Athos, Porthos, Aramis, and D'Artagnan in very different situations. Athos has settled down at his own estate. Porthos married a rich widow, and is now a Baron. Aramis joined a monastery, and is now the Bishop of Vannes. D'Artagnan alone remains a Musketeer for the king, and is now captain of the very force he so longed to join all those years ago. In The Man in the Iron Mask, Dumas develops his Musketeers into probing, multifaceted characters.

A tale of mystery, adventure, and political intrigue, this conclusion to Dumas’ swashbuckling musketeer saga is based on the true story of a masked prisoner who dwelled in the Bastille during the Louis XIV’s reign and whose identity remains in question to this day.

This historical romance, perhaps the greatest cloak-and-sword story ever, relates the adventures of four fictional swashbuckling heroes who served the French kings Louis XIII and Louis XIV. When the dashing young D'Artagnon arrives in Paris from Gascony, he becomes embroiled in three duels with the Three Musketeers: Athos, Porthos, and Aramis. But when he proves himself by fighting not against, but with, the Three Musketeers, they form a quick and lasting friendship.

The novel, a deceptively simple story, is set in Holland in 1672 during the amazing tulipmania of the 17th century that brought wealth to some and ruin to many. The story weaves the historical events surrounding the brutal murder of John de Witte and his brother Cornelius into a tale of romantic love. The novel is also a political allegory in which Dumas makes his case against tyranny and puts all his energies into creating a symbol of justice and tolerance: the fateful tulipa negra.

In Celebrated Crimes [eight volumes: this version, 1895], Dumas the elder, recognised master of historical fiction (The Count of Monte Cristo, The Three Musketeers) turns to historical fact. In this volume: Joan of Naples. The much-married queen does what she must to survive ‘the violence and treachery of this barbarous age’. ‘An angel soiled by crime, she lied like Satan himself .’ The Man in The Iron Mask (an essay). How much of the well-known story is fact, and how much fiction?

Our lovable and headstrong hero D'Artagnan bounds from one brush with death to another, uncovering a plot orchestrated by Cardinal Richelieu that threatens the beautiful Queen Anne of Austria and the entire Kingdom of France. Together with his friends Athos, Porthos, and Aramis, he must stop at nothing to thwart the Cardinal's murderous schemes and rescue the love of his life in a quest that takes him to all corners of 17th Century France and beyond.
