I Miserabili

by Victor Hugo

Overview

Narra le vicende di vari personaggi nella Parigi post Restaurazione, in un arco di tempo di circa 20 anni (dal 1815 al 1833, con alcune digressioni alle vicende della Rivoluzione francese, delle Guerre napoleoniche, con particolare riguardo alla battaglia di Waterloo, e alle vicende politiche della Monarchia di Luglio). I suoi personaggi appartengono agli strati più bassi della società, i cosiddetti "miserabili": persone cadute in miseria, ex forzati, prostitute, monelli di strada, studenti in povertà.

About the Author

"If a writer wrote merely for his time, I would have to break my pen and throw it away," the larger-than-life Victor Hugo once confessed. Indeed, this 19th-century French author's books — from the epic drama Les Misérables to the classic unrequited love story The Hunchback of Notre Dame — have spanned the ages, their themes of morality and redemption as applicable to our times as to his.
