Victor Hugo’s Daughter, Adèle
Did you know that Victor Hugo youngest child, Adele developed a romantic obsession a British military officer who rejected and nearly destroyed her. Kind of sounds like an mash-up of Frollo and Esmeralda. Adele’s love-life allludes to Notre Dame but it was by no means inspired it. Adele was born one year before Notre Dame’s publication.
There have been several biographies published on Adele Hugo but I really enjoyed the 1975 movie directed by François Truffaut and starring Isabelle Adjani called The Story of Adele H.
Note- For the Month of Setember every Monday I’m going to try post a Victor Hugo trivia that relates to Notre Dame.
Wow, she is quite pretty. She has the looks for Esmeralda, apart from being pale. Lol
