Product details

Hugo's genius lay in creating simple and recognizable myths. The enormous success of Les Misérables as a didactic work in the name of the poor and oppressed is due to his poetic and myth-enhanced view of human nature. V. S. Pritchett noted: "It was Tolstoy who confirmed Hugo's early ambitions by evaluating Les Misérables as one of the great novels of the world, if not the greatest. His ability to portray the extremes of experience 'as they are' is ultimately Hugo's great gift."

Information about the author: Christine Donougher is a freelance translator and editor. She has translated numerous books from French and Italian and won the Scott Moncrieff Translation Prize in 1992 for her translation of Sylvie Germain's The Book of Nights.
