"Count of Monte Cristo" follows the story of Edmond Dantès, a young sailor wrongfully imprisoned through a conspiracy of envy and betrayal. After years of suffering in the Chateau d'If, he escapes and discovers a hidden treasure on the Isle of Monte Cristo. Transformed into the wealthy Count of Monte Cristo, he meticulously plots revenge against those who betrayed him: Fernand, Danglars, and Villefort. As he enacts his elaborate plans, Dantès grapples with themes of justice, mercy, and the consequences of vengeance, ultimately exploring the fine line between retribution and redemption.

Alexandre Dumas could have been a character from one of his novels. A true romantic, he was the son of Napoleon's famous General Dumas, a prolific writer of over 277 volumes, a revolutionary and a man of tremendous appetites. He was born on July 24, 1802 and died penniless but happy on December 5, 1870, a refugee from his own excesses.
