About this audiobook
Victor Hugo
The best-known of the French Romantic writers, Victor Hugo was a poet, novelist, dramatist, and political critic. Hugo was an avid supporter of French republicanism and advocate for social and political equality, themes that reflect most strongly in his works Les Misérables, Notre-Dame de Paris (The Hunchback of Notre-Dame), and Le Dernier jour d'un condamné (The Last Day of a Condemned Man). Hugo’s literary works were successful from the outset, earning him a pension from Louis XVIII and membership in the prestigious Académie française, and influencing the work of literary figures such as Albert Camus, Charles Dickens, and Fyodor Dostoevsky. Elevated to the peerage by King Louis-Philippe, Hugo played an active role in French politics through the 1848 Revolution and into the Second and Third Republics. Hugo died in 1885, revered not only for his influence on French literature, but also for his role in shaping French democracy. He is buried in the Panthéon alongside Alexandre Dumas and Émile Zola.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Qué puede uno vivir bien con lo qué tiene y el destino pude cambiar para mejorar, pero en realidad pierde más qué lo obtenido
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Una tragedia que refleja los ideales y psicología de Víctor Hugo.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I really, really wanted to love this story but... Hugo was a great writer. there is no doubt about it. But this story has so many peaks and valleys that it is almost unbearable. Until now I thought Melmoth the Wanderer was the most difficult book I've read. I wanted to love this book so bad. But reading it was like swimming through concrete. The parts with our protagonist were incredible. The main characters are very memorable. The down points are Hugo and his penchant for pointless description. Pages of peoples names, who they were and what they did. This honestly served no point to the story. Unlike the Hunchback they had no purpose. It is a sad story, a moving story and one I won't forget for a very long time. But even for a piece in its time it is very slow.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Perhaps not as famous as some of his other work, this chunky novel by Victor Hugo nonetheless deserves to be read. His usual emphatic vision and majestic prose describe the tragic and infinitely touching story of Gwynplaine, a disfigured boy in 17th century England condemned to exhibiting himself in fairs for the mob's enjoyment. He loves his companion, Dea, who is able to love him back because she is blind and can only see his noble heart. What could be clumsily told by another less talented writer becomes, in the hands of Hugo, a universal pamphlet for humanity and against injustice. The plot might seem basic, but wait for the twist...
