"The Phantom of the Opera" / "La Fantôme de l'Opéra"

Text by Gaston Leroux, Illustrations by Anne Bachelier

Bi-Lingual (English and French)

"The Phantom of the Opera" is the quintessential 'Gothic' tale. It recounts the love triangle between Christine Daaé, a beautiful innocent, Raoul, the future Count of Changny, and Erik, the deformed, twisted "Phantom of the Opera" who inhabits the nether regions of the Opéra Garnier (The Paris Opera House)…

This book is the fourth major literary collaboration between Anne Bachelier and CFM Gallery and follows such previous successes Princess of Wax, Rose Daughter (A Retelling of Beauty and the Beast), and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Once again, Anne Bachelier's beautifully vivid artwork illuminates a classic story as never before imagined.
