Although, if you watch the Claude Rains version (or, indeed, any version ever) you should be aware that it is only tenuously related to the book. In that there's a guy in a mask and an opera singer but beyond that, well, it's only sort of the same story.

Heh. That cover is the exact same edition I have.
How are you liking it?
I once sat on the steps of the paris opera house and watched dressed up people go inside. My hotel was across the street...

I'm about halfway through and I am liking it a lot.

First, I didn't know you read my blog! Second, that sounds like fun just sitting on the steps and watching people go by. I want to go to Paris.
yes I do...I like to breeze by occasionally...
I'm really glad you're enjoying it.
So, I have no reason for thinking that you know this, but do you know if they still perform opera at the Opéra Garnier? Because I was under the impression that they didn't anymore but wikipedia is unclear.
I want to go too! I still always picture the Phantom as looking like Claude Raines...you should watch that version...
