Victor Hugo's Les Miserables is the powerful thought-provoking story of the peasant Jean Valjean. Valjean struggles to redeem his past after being unjustly imprisoned. Les Miserables sweeps us into the dark world of Paris after the rule of Napoleon I, a world filled with poverty, ignorance, and suffering. It illuminates the struggle for a better France.I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in political and social struggles. Be prepared to commit lots of time to this book. This is not a light read.
