Description

One of the most widely read novels of all time, Les Misérables was the crowning literary achievement of Victor Hugo’s stunning career. Though he was considered the greatest French writer of his day, Hugo was forced to flee the country because of his opposition to Napoleon III. While in exile he completed Les Misérables, an enormous melodrama set against the background of political upheaval in France following the rule of Napoleon I. Les Misérables tells the story of the peasant Jean Valjean—unjustly imprisoned, baffled by destiny, and hounded by his nemesis, the magnificently realized, ambiguously malevolent police detective Javert. As Valjean struggles to redeem his past, we are thrust into the teeming underworld of Paris with all its poverty, ignorance, and suffering. Just as cruel tyranny threatens to extinguish the last vestiges of hope, rebellion sweeps over the land like wildfire, igniting a vast struggle for the democratic ideal in France. A monumental classic dedicated to the oppressed, the underdog, the laborer, the rebel, the orphan, and the misunderstood, Les Miserables is a rich, emotional novel that captures nothing less than the entirety of life in nineteenth-century France.

Това е второ издание, с други думи съкратеното издание не е по предложение на нашето издателство. Виктор Юго е от авторите, които наистина няма как да бъдат "преработени". Но се съмняваме, че Лилия Сталева, един от знаковите български преводачи, си е позволила да преработи точно такъв автор... Принципно сме съгласни с вас, че няма как и не бива великите книги да бъдат представени в съктратени издания.

Кое налага изданието да е съкратено . И какво точно означава преработено. Как се преработва Юго
