This volume contains three works by the seminal French writer Victor Hugo, including "Under Sentence of Death, or A Criminal's Last Hour", "Told Under Canvas", and "Claude Gueux". A fantastic collection and a must-have for fans and Hugo's work. 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". Aside from his literary achievements, he also produced over 4,000 beautiful drawings and was a prominent campaigner for social and political issues, including the abolition of capital punishment. We are proudly republishing this vintage detective novel now in a brand new edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
