De Ellendigen (Deel 1 van 5) by Victor Hugo
"De Ellendigen (Deel 1 van 5)" by Victor Hugo is a French epic historical novel published in 1862. Set between 1815 and the 1832 June Rebellion in Paris, it follows ex-convict Jean Valjean's struggle for redemption among intersecting lives. The novel explores law and grace, justice and mercy, while examining France's history, Parisian society, and the depths of human suffering. Hugo's masterwork confronts poverty's degradation, starvation's ruin, and childhood's oppression—a journey from
darkness to light, injustice to justice, hell to heaven. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
