The novel "The Count of Monte Cristo" was originally written in which language?

one of my favorite books ever.

DSDA, I must have a different picture, but I knew it was Dumas

DSDA, Dumas doesn't show in my picture. But even if it does someone may not know who Dumas was.

In the picture, above the title you will see the name "Dumas". Dead give-away.

Monte Cristo sandwiches are very good.
