Phantom Poetry: Romantic Poetry and Prose - E-book - ePub

From award-winning author Kayla Lowe comes a collection of poems inspired by the classic tale of The Phantom of the Opera. Originally published by Gaston Leroux in 1909 and then later transformed into the Broadway award-winning musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber, the tragic story of the disfigured musical genius who lived in the bowels of the Palais Garnier has captivated audiences for more than a century.
Never before has anyone published a book of poetry pertaining exclusively to the love triangle that existed between the Phantom, his ingenue (Christine Daae), and her vicomte (Raoul de Chagny). This poetry collection consists of three chapbooks that explore these characters from a poetic standpoint. Divided into three parts, the collection features more than 100 poems that take readers on a dramatic journey to the past and into the infamous Phantom's lair where passion, obsession, music, love, and artifice reign.
