Synopsis:
This Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Classic includes the unabridged full text plus a glossary and reader's notes to help the modern reader contend with Rostand's allusions and vocabulary.
Edmond Rostand's 1897 romance, Cyrano de Bergerac, is a classic portrayal of the battle between physical attractiveness and inner beauty and the impact they have on one's ability to love and be loved. The legendary swordsman and poet, whose nose is as big as his passion, believes himself too ugly to woo and win his beloved Roxane. Fellow cadet, Christian, believes himself to be too unschooled. Drawn together by their insecurities, Christian and Cyrano compensate for one another's shortcomings and together become the ideal romantic hero. Only one, however, can win the woman they both love. As the drama unfolds, both friends will learn the importance of self-worth, loyalty, confidence, and honor.
