The Memoirs of Victor Hugo (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781473332423)

This book contains an intimate biography of seminal French writer Victor Hugo. It delves deep into his long and chequered life, one which was filled with the court and the street, parliament and the theatre, labour, struggles, disappointments, exile, and triumphs. This volume is highly recommended for fans of Hugo's work, and it would make for a worthy addition to any bookshelf. Victor Marie Hugo (1802 - 1885) was a French novelist, dramatist, and poet belonging to the Romantic movement. He is widely hailed as one of the most accomplished and well-known French writers, originally achieving renown for his poetical endeavours-the most notable of which are the volumes "Les Contemplations" and "La Légende des siècles". Outside of his native country, Hugo's best-known works are his novels: "Les Misérables" (1862) and "Notre-Dame de Paris" (1831), commonly known as "The Hunchback of Notre-Dame". Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
