Cyrano de Bergerac
1 Reviews
(2)
YA
The renowned verse play Cyrano de Bergerac is retold in witty prose well suited to Cyrano's heady brew of comedy, tragedy, and heartbreaking romance. McCaughrean, like dramatist Edmond Rostand (and protagonist Cyrano), is a master of ebullient wordplay. She adapts freely, excising and adding details yet always honoring the spirit of Rostand's tale and its seventeenth-century French milieu.
