Summary

In "Les Misérables Volume 1" by Victor Hugo, the story begins with ex-convict Jean Valjean, who strives to rebuild his life after serving 19 years for stealing bread. Pursued relentlessly by Inspector Javert, Valjean’s journey of redemption unfolds against a backdrop of poverty, injustice, and revolution in post-revolutionary France. Themes of morality, grace, and societal inequality are explored as Valjean seeks to protect those he loves while grappling with his past. Hugo intricately weaves personal struggles with broader social issues, painting a vivid picture of human suffering and resilience. This powerful narrative captures the enduring fight for justice and compassion in an unforgiving world.
