| Summary | "Il Conte di Monte-Cristo" by Alexandre Dumas is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. The story revolves around Edmond Dantès, a young and promising sailor who is unjustly imprisoned and ultimately seeks revenge against those who conspire against him. The narrative explores themes of betrayal, justice, and the transformative power of hope." "At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the bustling port of Marseille in 1815. Edmond Dantès, the second-in-command of the ship "Pharaon," is returning home after a successful voyage, filled with hopes of becoming captain and marrying his beloved Mercedès. However, the atmosphere shifts as Dantès delivers the news of the death of his captain and reveals his brief meeting with the Emperor Napoleon. Meanwhile, jealousy and ambition linger among his peers, particularly Danglars and Fernando, the latter of whom harbors unrequited feelings for Mercedès. Dantès's fortune seems bright, but the opening chapters foreshadow the darker events to come, setting the stage for his eventual downfall and quest for vengeance against those who betrayed him."
