The Three Musketeers
by Alexandre Dumas
Not many a person hasn’t heard of The Three Musketeers, but very few know the story’s true origin.
It was first published in France, 1844 by Alexandre Dumas and is full of dramatic swordfights, dangerous love, and swashbuckling adventure. It has plenty of humour and almost absurd ridiculous conversations throughout. However, Dumas also touches on more serious topics; the rising political discordance in France, the consequences of marital affairs, and the brutal reality of war.
This novel is the basis of many a loved adaptation, and with good reason too. It’s a primarily light hearted tale, about friendship, love and honour that keeps readers hooked from the very first page. It’s one of the most compelling novels of the 19th century, and by far Dumas’ best known work.
