Victor Hugo Les Miserables
New York Signet Classic 1987 0451525264 / 9780451525260 Trade Paperback Very Good No Jacket
“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 of Les 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

Victor Hugo Les Miserables (Volume 1)
Middlesex, England Penguin Classics 1980 0140444033 / 9780140444032 Trade Paperback Fine
One of the great classics of Western literature, Les Miserables is a magisterial work which is rich in both character portrayal and meticulous historical description. Characters such as the absurdly criminalized Valjean, the street urchin Gavroche, the rascal Thenardier, the implacable detective Javert, and the pitiful figure of the prostitute Fantine and her daughter Cosette, have entered the pantheon of literary ''dramatis personae.'' The reader is also treated to the unforgettable descriptions of the Battle of Waterloo and Valjean's flight through the Paris sewers. With an Introduction and Notes by Roger Clark, University of Kent at Canterbury.
