"To love is to act"-- "Aimer, c'est agir." These words, which
Victor Hugo wrote three days before he died, epitomize his life's
philosophy. His love of freedom, democracy, and all
people--especially the poor and wretched--drove him not only to
write his epic Les Miserables but also to follow his conscience. We
have much to learn from Hugo, who battled for justice, lobbied
against slavery and the death penalty, and fought for the rights of
women and children. In a series of essays that interweave Hugo's
life with Les Miserables and point to the novel's contemporary
relevance, To Love Is to Act explores how Hugo reveals his guiding
principles for life, including his belief in the redemptive power
of love and forgiveness. Enriching the book are insights from
artists who captured the novel's heart in the famed musical, Les
Mis creators Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schoenberg, producer
of the musical Les Miserables Cameron Mackintosh, film director Tom
Hooper, and award-winning actors who have portrayed Jean Valjean:
Colm Wilkinson and Hugh Jackman.
