About this book
Creators: Edmond Rostand (1868-1918) and Charles Renauld [Translator] "Cyrano de Bergerac: An Heroic Comedy in Five Acts" by Edmond Rostand is a play written in 1897. This verse drama follows Cyrano, a brilliant swordsman and poet cursed with an enormous nose that makes him doubt himself. Though he loves his beautiful cousin Roxane, he believes his appearance bars him from her affection. When Roxane falls for the handsome but tongue-tied Christian, Cyrano agrees to help—secretly writing eloquent love letters on Christian's behalf while hiding his own passionate feelings.
