"Les Misérables" by Victor Hugo follows the life of Jean Valjean, a former convict seeking redemption after serving nineteen years for stealing a loaf of bread. As he reinvents himself and strives to lead a moral life, he is relentlessly pursued by Inspector Javert, who believes in strict justice. The story weaves together the lives of numerous characters, including the tragic Fantine, her daughter Cosette, and the idealistic revolutionary Marius. Set against the backdrop of early 19th-century France, the novel explores themes of justice, love, sacrifice, and the struggle against social injustice, ultimately advocating for compassion and understanding.
