>mfw plebs read the abridged version

Dumas literally saved me from hating books.

Before I read Count of Monte Cristo I had had no experience with books outside of white guilt garbage courtesy of my fucking awful school system

>muh slaves
>muh indians
>muh six million

Garbage book after garbage book.

Suddenly I picked this up and I'm reading about princes and Sultans, swashbuckling adventure, bandits and treasure, dappled greys and unlimited credit.

Thank god for Dumas
