Les Misérables by Victor Hugo

The story of Les Misérables follows the events that marked the lives of its protagonists and their path to redemption. The facts of the novel, despite being fictitious, are located at real moments in French history. The nobility achieved by Jean Valjean, the sweet Cossette ignorant of his decadent provenance and the implacable will of Inspector Javert, shape a story full of drama but also of great hope.
