Reviews
"Hugo's genius was for the creation of simple and recognizable myth. The huge success of Les MisÉrables as a didactic work on behalf of the poor and oppressed is due to his poetic and myth-enlarged view of human nature." -V. S. Pritchett "It was Tolstoy who vindicated [Hugo's] early ambition by judging Les MisÉrables one of the world's great novels, if not the greatest… [His] ability to present the extremes of experience 'as they are' is, in the end, Hugo's great gift." -From the Introduction by Peter Washington, "Rich and gorgeous. This is the [translation] to read… and if you are flying, just carry it under your arm as you board, or better still, rebook your holiday and go by train, slowly, page by page." -Jeanette Winterson,The Times(London) "[A] magnificent story… marvelously captured in this new unabridged translation by Julie Rose." -The Denver Post "A new translation by Julie Rose of Hugo's behemoth classic that is as racy and current and utterly arresting as it should be." -Buffalo News(editor's choice) "Vibrant and readable, idiomatic and well suited to a long narrative, [Julie Rose's new translation ofLes Miserables] is closer to the captivating tone Hugo would have struck for his own contemporaries." -Diane Johnson "A lively, dramatic, and wonderfully readable translation of one of the greatest 19th-century novels." -Alison Lurie "Some of us may have read Les Miserables back in the day, but… between Gopnik and Rose, you'll get two introductions that will offer you all the pleasures of your college instruction with none of the pain." -The Agony Column(trashotron.com) From the Hardcover edition., "Hugo's genius was for the creation of simple and recognizable myth.

Synopsis
It has been said that Victor Hugo has a street named after him in virtually every town in France. A major reason for the singular celebrity of this most popular and versatile of the great French writers is Les Mis rables (1862). In this story of the trials of the peasant Jean Valjean--a man unjustly imprisoned, baffled by destiny, and hounded by his nemesis, the magnificently realized, ambiguously malevolent police detective Javert--Hugo achieves the sort of rare imaginative resonance that allows a work of art to transcend its genre. Les Mis rables is at once a tense thriller that contains one of the most compelling chase scenes in all literature, an epic portrayal of the nineteenth-century French citizenry, and a vital drama--highly particularized and poetic in its rendition but universal in its implications--of the redemption of one human being., It has been said that Victor Hugo has a street named after him in virtually every town in France.

    The used book was exactly as described like new. The seller promptly shipped my book and did not play games with the shipping fee I paid (included in the price) . Several sellers include the shipping fee in the price but then when they ship they opt for a cheaper shipping fee so they profit from the difference while they let the customer wait for longer to receive the item. This HONEST seller did not do that. Transit time from GA to Miami was what I paid for and exactly 3 days in bubble envelope
