The Phantom of the Opera is a novel written by Gaston Leroux. The novel takes place in Paris. The exact time is unknown but would be around 1910. The reviews from the critics are very different.

In 1930, dialogue and music was added to the silent film and later in 1945, it was rewritten and produced in technicolor (The Phantom of the Opera Website). In 1984, Andrew Lloyd Webber came across a review of a stage adaption of the book that was being produced in Stratford and he contacted Cameron Mackintosh about turning it into a musical. Just a year later, a draft of the first act of the

The two books that I chose to read this summer were Phantom of the Opera and Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea. In Phantom of the Opera, the main character being explored is The Phantom, also known as, Erik. Erik was thin, had a skeleton frame, and was always dressed in dress clothes.
