Set in 15th-century Paris, "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" follows the tragic story of Quasimodo, the deformed bell-ringer of Notre Dame Cathedral, who is shunned by society. He becomes infatuated with the beautiful gypsy Esmeralda, who shows him kindness amidst his loneliness. As her life becomes entwined with the desires of the obsessed Archdeacon Frollo and the noble soldier Phoebus, Quasimodo finds himself torn between love and loyalty. Through themes of love, acceptance, and the struggle against societal norms, Victor Hugo's novel paints a haunting portrait of beauty and monstrosity, illustrating the complexities of the human condition.
