Les Misrables (ABR) Audiobook (Free)

Considered to be French novelist Victor Hugo’s masterpiece, Les Miserables, which was published in 1862, is a sprawling historical and philosophical epic that covers from 1815 through the Paris Uprising in 1832. Well known because of its many subplots and digressions from the primary story, the novel’s mentioned aim is usually a improvement from evil to good, from injustice to justice, from falsehood to truth, which can be seen most clearly in the storyplot from the central character Jean Valjean, an ex-convict who problems to tremble the sins of his past and become a good man. Widely adapted, the novel motivated the blockbuster musical and film colloquially known as Les Mis. This is an abridged audio recording from the 1887 Isabel F. Hapgood translation.
