This gripping story about the "opera ghost" and the beautiful singer he loves launched one of the most popular musicals in Broadway history-and it serves up enough thrills, chills, and surprises to keep even the most reluctant reader fascinated. Gaston Leroux (1868-1927) was a French writer best known for his novel The Phantom of the Opera. Born in Paris, Leroux initially worked as a critic and court reporter for the newspapers L'Écho de Paris and Le Matin. In 1918 he formed a film company called the Société des Cinéromans. After quitting journalism to focus on writing fiction, Leroux went on to publish dozens of novels. He died at his home in Nice, France. |
