Twenty Years After:
• With a picture of Alexandre Dumas
, a detailed biography of him is added.
• All content is redone in a new style, with the author’s name and the title of the novel at the top.
• For a better glance, a small graphic is added at the beginning of each chapter.
Twenty Years After begins in 1648, with the Red Sphinx, Cardinal Richelieu, dead, France ruled by a regency in the midst of civil war, and King Charles I’s monarchy hanging by a thread across the English Channel. These are difficulties that a sword thrust will not address, as d’Artagnan will discover. The musketeers confront maturity and its greatest difficulty in Twenty Years After: you fail sometimes. We begin to glimpse the actual qualities of Dumas’s great heroes in how the four companions respond to failure and rise above it.
