The Temptation Of The Impossible
Victor Hugo's "Les Miserables" is neglected by readers and undervalued by critics. This work helps us to appreciate the incredible ambition, power, and beauty of Hugo's masterpiece and, in the process, presents a humane vision of fiction as an alternative reality that can help us imagine a different and better world.
