The Phantom of the Opera. The Mystery of the Yellow Room

Gaston Leroux is a classic of detective and mystical novels. For more than a century, films and series have been made based on his books, and plays and musicals have been staged. One of the most famous French novels of... all time, «The Phantom of the Opera», has gained particular fame in this regard. This gripping gothic tale about a mysterious being inhabiting the underground of the famous Paris opera continues to keep readers in suspense from the first to the last page. This edition includes, in addition to «The Phantom of the Opera», the first and most famous novels about the adventures of reporter Joseph Rouletabille: «The Mystery of the Yellow Room» (John Dickson Carr considered «The Mystery...» the best story of crime in a hermetically sealed space) and «The Lair of the White Worm». The book also includes an additional chapter to «The Phantom of the Opera», which was never translated into Russian and was part of the first edition of the novel.
