Discover Les Misérables by Victor Hugo — one of the greatest and most beloved novels in world literature. First published in 1862, this sprawling epic masterpiece has captivated readers for over a century and a half, inspiring countless adaptations, including one of the most successful musicals of all time, while remaining a towering achievement of nineteenth-century French literature.

The novel follows Jean Valjean, a former convict imprisoned for stealing bread, as he seeks redemption and a new life after his release, all while relentlessly pursued by the unforgiving police inspector Javert. Set against the turbulent backdrop of early nineteenth-century France, including the historic Paris uprising of 1832, Hugo weaves together an unforgettable cast of characters — the tragic Fantine, the innocent Cosette, the revolutionary students, and the conniving Thénardiers — into a sweeping meditation on justice, mercy, poverty, and the possibility of moral transformation.
