Product Information

&&LILes Miserables&&L/I, by &&LBVictor Hugo&&L/B, is part of the &&LIBarnes & Noble Classics&&L/I&&LI &&L/Iseries, which offers quality editions at affordable prices to the student and the general reader, including new scholarship, thoughtful design, and pages of carefully crafted extras. Here are some of the remarkable features of &&LIBarnes & Noble Classics&&L/I: New introductions commissioned from todays top writers and scholars Biographies of the authors Chronologies of contemporary historical, biographical, and cultural events Footnotes and endnotes Selective discussions of imitations, parodies, poems, books, plays, paintings, operas, statuary, and films inspired by the work Comments by other famous authors Study questions to challenge the readers viewpoints and expectations Bibliographies for further reading Indices & Glossaries, when appropriate All editions are beautifully designed and are printed to superior specifications; some include illustrations of historical interest. &&LIBarnes & Noble Classics &&L/Ipulls together a constellation of influences--biographical, historical, and literary--to enrich each readers understanding of these enduring works. One of the most widely read novels of all time, &&LILes Misérables &&L/Iwas the crowning literary achievement of &&LBVictor Hugo&&L/B's stunning career. Though he was considered the greatest French writer of his day, Hugo was forced to flee the country because of his opposition to Napoleon III. While in exile he completed&&LI Les Misérables&&L/I, an enormous melodrama set against the background of political upheaval in France following the rule of Napoleon I. &&LPThis newly abridged edition of &&LILes Misérables&&L/I tells the story of the peasant Jean Valjean--unjustly imprisoned, baffled by destiny, and hounded by his nemesis, the magnificently realized, ambiguously malevolent police detective Javert. As Valjean struggles to redeem his past, we are thrust into the teeming underworld of Paris with all its poverty, ignorance, and suffering. Just as cruel tyranny threatens to extinguish the last vestiges of hope, rebellion sweeps over the land like wildfire, igniting a vast struggle for the democratic ideal in France. &&LPA monumental classic dedicated to the oppressed, the underdog, the laborer, the rebel, the orphan, and the misunderstood, &&LILes Misérables&&L/I is a rich, emotional novel that captures nothing less than the entirety of life in nineteenth-century France.&&L/P&&LP&&LBLaurence M. Porter&&L/B has published twelve books, including &&LIVictor Hugo &&L/I(1999), and a hundred articles and chapters. He was a National Endowment for the Humanties Senior Fellow in 1998. He teaches French at Michigan State University, where he won the Distinguished Faculty Award in 1995.&&L/P

It's a tough read but well worth it.
I read the abridged version many, many years ago and don't really remember certain aspects of it now. I love the story and intend to tackle this and the unabridged version.
