Více o knize
Celebrating a bicentennial, this lively new translation of a lesser-known masterpiece showcases Hugo's signature skills. The story follows Gilliatt, who embarks on a quest to free a grounded ship for the chance to win a wealthy shipowner's daughter. Richly detailed depictions of seafaring life and vivid action scenes, particularly a climactic battle with a devilfish, enhance the narrative. While more romance than realism, the ironic conclusion leaves a lasting impact, making this grand tale irresistibly engaging for both new readers and nostalgic fans.
