Phantom of the Opera is a french historical fiction book, which explores the devastating consequences of the dubious relationship between the Ghost of the Opera and a beautiful opera singer, Christine Daaé. It tackles the obsessive, crazy, kind of love (or fascination) that starts between the two.
The plot feels like a mix of The Hunchback of Notre-Dame and Wuthering Heights.
I really enjoyed the climax of this novel, it is truly one of the most dramatic, emotional endings I have encountered. I love how the novel explores the idea of being loved by being accepted for oneself.
Will definitely check out the play once.
