Read Le roman de la Momie French Edition Theophile Gautier GPh Ballin Books

Product details

This book was the basis for the famous La Fille du Pharaon ballet. I lost a lot of sleep at night reading this page turner. The original publication was in serial form in Newspapers, and so reading the book was a challenge to guess where the breaks were. I could just imagine people rushing to the news stands to get the latest installment. Theophile Gauthier kept me waiting until the very end to bring it all together. A real pleasure to read such a fine book.
