书籍简介

这部小说是有史以来受欢迎的舞台音乐剧的灵感来源，而这部小说的全新译本也令人赞叹不已。

有传言称，一个幽灵潜伏在巴黎歌剧院的黑暗通道和地下室中。没有人真正见过这个魅影，但美丽而有才华的年轻歌手 Christine Daaé 听到了他的声音。他是她的“音乐天使”，教她唱出她以前从未唱过的歌。当英俊的子爵开始追求 Christine 时，神秘的魅影因嫉妒而起身寻求报复。

《歌剧魅影》的这个新译本捕捉到了加斯通·勒鲁永恒原著中的哥特式恐怖和悲剧浪漫。它附有一篇新序言，探讨了魅影的遗产并揭开了巴黎歌剧院的秘密。

A sparkling new translation of the novel that inspired the most popular stage musical of all time.

Rumors abound that a stalks the dark passages and cellars of the Paris Opera House. No one has actually seen this Phantom, but Christine Daaé, a beautiful and talented young singer, has heard his voice. He is her "Angel of Music," coaching her to sing as she never could before. When the handsome Viscount begins to court Christine, the mysterious Phantom-consumed by jealousy-rises up to seek revenge.

作者简介

加斯通·勒鲁 1868 年出生于巴黎，是法国记者、剧作家和侦探/惊悚小说作家。他的职业生涯始于犯罪记者和战地通讯员，他过着冒险的生活，曾到过斯堪的纳维亚半岛、东欧，甚至伪装成阿拉伯人到过北非。他那充满活力、常常危险的冒险和好奇的性格为他那些耸人听闻的神秘和冒险故事提供了许多背景和情节素材，尤其是那些以记者侦探约瑟夫·鲁勒塔比耶为主角的故事。他知名的侦探小说之一《黄色房间之谜》出版于 1907 年，他的作品被称为“我们所拥有的侦探小说中杰出的典范之一”。但勒鲁知名的故事是《歌剧魅影》（1911 年），其中的恐怖英雄由经典恐怖电影明星朗·钱尼和克劳德·雷恩斯在电影中扮演。勒鲁于 1927 年在尼斯去世。

Gaston Leroux, born in Paris in 1868, was a French journalist, playwright, and detective/thriller writer. Beginning his career as a crime reporter and war correspondent, he lived an adventurous life that took him to Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, and even into North Africa disguised as an Arab. His high-spirited, often dangerous, escapades and questioning nature provided much of the background and plot material for his sensational mystery and adventure stories, particularly those starring his reporter-sleuth, Joseph Rouletabille. One of his most famous detective novels, The Mystery of the Yellow Room, was published in 1907, and his works have been called “among the finest examples of the detective stories we possess.” But Leroux’s best-known story is The Phantom of the Opera (1911), whose macabre hero has been played in film by classic horror film stars Lon Chaney and Claude Rains. Leroux died in Nice in 1927.
