( March 29, 2014)
Enter Paris in 1832 amidst the deprivation and unrest of the era of revolution and meet Jean Valjean—who was imprisoned for stealing a loaf of bread, has risen from the ashes as man of distinction, but is continually pursued by the perversely just Inspector Javert.
One of literature’s most acclaimed novels, Victor Hugo wrote Les Misérables as a way to explore crime versus punishment and to critic French politics. But through his writing readers were introduced to a phenomenal cast of characters who come alive in rich detail, exploring the condition of the human spirit—Valjean, Javert, the desperate single mother Fantine, the beautiful and passionate Cossette, and the revolutionary Marius.
• Unabridged. Includes all of the original illustrations. Digitally retouched and Kindle-friendly.
• A reference map of locations in 19th century Paris
