![]() I think that it actually hits on all the major plot moments, at the expense of most character backstory and explanation. ![]() But it is really much shorter - you could probably read the entire abridged copy twice in the time it takes Dantes just to find the treasure in the full copy. Not positive but I believe much of the stuff with Danglers’ daughter is out.Īs I say, my memory of the abridged copy isn’t great, maybe someone can be more specific and hopefully this isn’t inaccurate. Way less buildup in the beginning before he gets framed. I don’t think any of the other scenes in the cave or that island made it in except when he first finds it (maybe the very end as well?) If I recall it makes it a little more mysterious/miraculous.Īfter getting out of prison he finds the fortune much much faster. In the abridged version we don’t really see how the Count makes things happen, they just sort of do. This is only one example, but I think this is one of the biggest differences. The chapter with the Telegraph and the guy who he bribes with a garden is cut. All these characters are present, just a lot more shallow. Also some of the Benedetto/Bertuccio and I believe Haydee scenes are cut. So my memory is foggy, but:Īs another comment mentioned, lots of Luigi Vampa is cut out. I read the abridged version waaaay back in the day and have read the full text a number of times since then. Example: Hello.Įxplanation of our link flairs Join our /r/bookclub Don't forget /new!
