  • Description
    Sensational, dramatic, packed with rich excitement and filled with the sweep and violence of human passions, LES MISERABLES is not only superb adventure but a powerful social document. The story of how the convict Jean-Valjean struggled to escape his past and reaffirm his humanity, in a world brutalized by poverty and ignorance, became the gospel of the poor and the oppressed.

    Author Info
    • Victor Hugo (1802-85), novelist, poet, playwright, and French national icon, is best known for two of today’s most popular world classics: Les Misérables and The Hunchback of Notre-Dame, as well as other works, including The Toilers of the Sea and The Man Who Laughs. Hugo was elected to the Académie Française in 1841. As a statesman, he was named a Peer of France in 1845. He served in France’s National Assemblies in the Second Republic formed after the 1848 revolution, and in 1851 went into self-imposed exile upon the ascendance of Napoleon III, who restored France’s government to authoritarian rule. Hugo returned to France in 1870 after the proclamation of the Third Republic.

      Julie Rose’s acclaimed translations include Alexandre Dumas’s The Knight of Maison-Rouge and Racine’s Phèdre, as well as works by Paul Virilio, Jacques Rancière, Chantal Thomas, and many others. She is a recipient of the PEN medallion for translation and the New South Wales Premier’s Translation Prize.

      Adam Gopnik is the author of Paris to the Moon and Through the Children’s Gate, and editor of the Library of America anthology Americans in Paris. He writes on various subjects for The New Yorker and has recently written introductions to works by Maupassant, Balzac, Proust, and Alain-Fournier.

    abridged version

    The description of the book does not mention that this is the abridged edition of the book. The abridgement is taken from The Penguin Audiobook. Information about editions need to be part of the book description on the website. It might be important for some people to know which edition they are buying.

    Just go for it! Don't think twice!

    Amazing, amazing literary work! I have nothing but the utmost respect for Victor Hugo after reading this book. Simply WOW!!! The way that each scene is described and beautifully written is nothing short of perfect.

    The story is weaved beautifully with many characters playing many parts but intertwined in this little world. The perfect choice of words and the way the author paints the picture with the words made me feel as if I was right there, overlooking, as the story unraveled and could f...

    A microcosm of 19th century france.

    There need be no further discourses on Victor Hugo's Les Misérables. It is already accepted as a classic in western literature. Albeit, though the length of the book is quite long, the soul of the book appeals to all readers with its discussion about poverty, righteousness and the impact of society on individuals. A patient and enthusiastic reader will be rewarded.

    Victor Hugo classic. Highly emotional,highly entertaining and very useful for the young also.

    I read it about two decades ago. It remains one of the best books I have read. Very educative and full of human interest. I read it again now and it continues to inspire.
