    There’s a reason behind it. When it was first published, it was serialised, so Dumas had an incentive to drag it along, also it romanticizes travels around Europe because it was fancy at the time.

    The plot behind it is still one of the most compelling I have ever read and a revenge story that few modern works of art can match.
