Few novels ever swept the world with such overpowering impact as
LES MISERABLES. Within twenty-four hours of its publication in
1862, the first Paris edition was sold out. In other great cities
throughout the world, it was devoured with equal relish.
Sensational, dramatic, packed with rich excitement and filled
with the sweep and violence of human passions, LES MISERABLES is
not only a superb adventure but a powerful social document. The
story of how the convict Jean Valjean struggles to escape his past
and reaffirm his humanity in a world brutalized by poverty and
ignorance became the gospel of the poor and the oppressed. One of
the greatest works in Western literature, LES MISERABLES is an
exhilarating and deeply profound reading experience.
