Les Misérables von Victor Hugo

“The guilty one is not he who commits the sin, but he who causes the darkness.” “So long as ignorance and poverty exist on earth, books of the nature of Les Misérables cannot fail to be of use;” says Victor Hugo in the preface of his famous novel. Set in the years after the French Revolution, Les Misérables is certainly French history recounted through the personal stories of its main characters: Jean Valjean, Fantine, Cosette, Javert, and others. And the novel offers philosophical insight on the good deeds that can happen even amidst ignorance and poverty. This handsome leather-bound volume is a beautiful addition to any classic literature library with specially designed endpapers, gilded edges, and a ribbon bookmark so you will never lose your place.

Der Schuldige ist nicht der, der die Sünde begeht, sondern der, der die Dunkelheit verursacht. „Solange Ignoranz und Armut auf der Erde existieren, können Bücher wie Les Misérables nicht nutzlos sein“, sagt Victor Hugo im Vorwort seines berühmten Romans. Sicherlich ist Les Misérables die französische Geschichte, die durch die persönlichen Geschichten seiner Hauptfiguren erzählt wird. Die Erzählung bietet philosophische Einsichten über die guten Taten, die selbst inmitten von Ignoranz und Armut geschehen können. Dieses schöne, in Leder gebundene Buch ist eine wunderbare Ergänzung für jede Bibliothek klassischer Literatur, mit speziell gestalteten Vorsatzblättern, goldenem Schnitt und einem Lesezeichen, damit Sie nie Ihren Platz verlieren.
