Gaston Louis Alfred Leroux (6 May 1868, Paris, France – 15 April 1927) was a French journalist and author of detective fiction.
In the English-speaking world, he is best known for writing the novel The Phantom of the Opera (Le Fantôme de l'Opéra, 1910), which has been made into several film and stage productions of the same name, such as the 1925 film starring Lon Chaney; and Andrew Lloyd Webber's 1986 musical. It was also the basis of the 1990 novel Phantom by Susan Kay.
Leroux went to school in Normandy and studied law in Paris, graduating in 1889. He inherited millions of francs and lived wildly until he nearly reached bankruptcy. Then in 1890, he began working as a court reporter and theater critic for L'Écho de Paris. His most important journalism came when he began working as an international correspondent for the Paris newspaper Le Matin. In 1905 he was present at and covered the Russian Revolution. Another case he was present at involved the investigation and deep coverage of an opera house in Paris, later to become a ballet house. The basement consisted of a cell that held prisoners in the Paris Commune, which were the rulers of Paris through much of the Franco-Prussian war.
He suddenly left journalism in 1907, and began writing fiction. In 1909, he and Arthur Bernède formed their own film company, Société des Cinéromans to simultaneously publish novels and turn them into films. He first wrote a mystery novel entitled Le mystère de la chambre jaune (1908; The Mystery of the Yellow Room), starring the amateur detective Joseph Rouletabille. Leroux's contribution to French detective fiction is considered a parallel to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's in the United Kingdom and Edgar Allan Poe's in America. Leroux died in Nice on April 15, 1927, of a urinary tract infection.
When the new managers of the Paris Opera House ignore their predecessors warnings about the hideous Opera ghost stalking the theatre, it is a fatal mistake. Tortured by unrequited love for the beautiful young singer Christine Daae, the mysterious figure living in the depths beneath them has been awaiting his chance to strike. And when Christine suddenly disappears after a triumphant singing performance, it becomes clear that the phantom s time has come. Filled with colour and theatrical spectacle, this thrilling gothic tale has enthralled readers with its mystery, eerie suspense and tragic story of love turned into deadly obsession.
读过的书不多,上海译文出版社典雅的封面设计,良好的纸张一直给我留下了很好的印象。 但是我这次看这本《剧院魅影》的时候,居然会读不下去,以至于上豆瓣吐槽。。。 声明我这是第一次接触剧院魅影或者歌剧魅影,看这本书之前我完全不知道该故事讲的是个什么所以然。 所以...
评分 评分 评分”姑娘啊,爱我吧。把眼睛挖下来爱我吧。略过那皮囊来看我的心吧。你是否迟疑,恶心,不愿意?那我又何必可惜你?“第一个艾瑞克这样想。克里斯汀不是对的人,他可能愤怒或者悲伤,那是他的事情。 第二个艾瑞克不介意克里斯汀的心在哪里,但是他嫌弃她瞎眼,或许他比较看得开...
在伦敦西区第一次看音乐剧看得就是《歌剧魅影》,音乐剧剧情简化得比这部小说简单得多所以看音乐剧就算不完全听清楚演员唱的歌词配合精彩的舞台效果和歌舞还是能懂的~就算不懂光看视觉和听觉效果这部音乐剧还是很值得看。回到小说总的来说情节还是吸引的,看完再去看音乐剧应该会有更深的理解和感受,如果有机会也想再看一次!

评分大学时候和室友一起看了电影,当时感觉电影非常具有戏剧性,没想到多年以后竟然读了原版小说,感觉比电影要差一些,主要是其中部分情节太离奇,有点超越理解范围
