About the book

Victor Hugo's Les Misérables follows the former convict Jean Valjean as he attempts to build a moral life while being relentlessly pursued by Inspector Javert. Set against nineteenth-century France and culminating amid the 1832 Paris uprising, the novel brings together characters including Fantine, Cosette, Marius and the Thénardiers. Hugo combines sweeping social history with themes of justice, poverty, redemption, love, revolution and the conflict between law and mercy.
