Beschreibung
Les Misérables, Volume 1 introduces readers to one of the greatest works of literature, blending history, politics, and human struggle in a gripping narrative. This volume follows Jean Valjean, a man imprisoned for stealing a loaf of bread, as he is transformed by the kindness of Bishop Myriel and struggles to rebuild his life in post-revolutionary France. As he reinvents himself as a prosperous factory owner and mayor, he is relentlessly pursued by the unwavering Inspector Javert. Meanwhile, the tragic fate of Fantine, a woman forced into desperation to provide for her daughter, unfolds in heartbreaking detail.
Victor Hugo masterfully weaves social criticism and moral philosophy into this timeless novel, exposing the harsh realities of poverty, justice, and redemption. This first volume sets the stage for the epic journey of Valjean, a story of hope, sacrifice, and the search for salvation.
