The life of Dumas is not only a monument of endeavour and success, it is a sort of labyrinth as well. It abounds in pseudonyms and disguises, in sudden and unexpected appearances and retreats as unexpected and sudden, in scandals and in rumours, in mysteries and traps and ambuscades of every kind.

  • -- William Ernest Henley 威廉姆·恩内斯特·亨里

杜马斯的一生不仅是一座努力和成功的丰碑,也是一座迷宫。它充斥着假名和伪装,出现在突然和意想不到的地方,又以突然和意想不到的方式退却,出现在丑闻和谣言中,出现在各种各样的神秘事件、陷阱和埋伏中。
