An editorial innovation, a modern, luxurious series of iconic works by the most important authors of all time. The masterpieces of world literature without cuts, with color illustrations and enriched with explanatory texts that present the era in which they were written and their impact on world literature.

There, one step before giving up on life, he meets Abbé Faria, who teaches him and tells him about the treasure hidden on the island of Montecristo. Dantès escapes and presents himself as the Count of Montecristo, to take revenge on those who sought his destruction.
