Hi Julia! Thank you so much for watching and commenting! I am so glad that that’s the vibe you got from my video! And I did really, really love Les Miserables. Really. 🇫🇷

I absolutely felt like I knew Hugo too. The insanely long tangents he goes on were frustrating at times but in the end the novel couldn’t be what it is without them. This is probably my favorite book of all time because of the sheer sense of connection it leaves you with.

Brilliant review Kelly! Your passion for Les Miserables is a joy to watch. I loved it too. Your thoughts on the ‘essay’ chapters were very interesting. I think I will go back to those sections for a re-read as I don’t think I gave them the attention they deserved. A little bit of laziness on my part and, as you mentioned, a desire to get back to the characters. Have you read Norte Dame? If not, I would recommend that too.

I am currently reading les mis in the original french (about 500 pages in) and loving it so so much :) the characters are really well written, and none of the things Hugo wrote about felt out of place, contrary to what people had warned me about beforehand. the chapter about 1817 was difficult (i wish i had had a version to hand with footnotes explaining each reference) but was great at setting the tone for the events surrounding fantine. my favourite passages so far have been: the conversation between the bishop and the old revolutionary; jean valjean's breakdown over being called monsieur; all the descriptions of his state of mind (leaving the prison with his evil thoughts, leaving the bishop completely taken aback and disorientated, leaving his town to voluntarily go to prison in the place of another unfortunate soul); and the chapter in which he begins to live with cosette. the book is so immersive as well, i feel like hugo's slow writing style enhances that beautifully :)

The beauty of it is that you can read a few chapters from another book and return to LM to read a few pages without forgetting anything.....no need to check, it gets embedded in one's brain and soul. As an avid,voracious reader, of the many,many books I have read in my life there are 5 that will always be my companions:- 1. Pride and Prejudice; 2. Great Expectations; 3. Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. 4. Les Miserable; 5. The Woman in White. In no real particular order. Kind regards from Cheshire, England;GB

So Im thinking I might read this in May I have some time off so I can dedicate a fair bit of time to reading. Funny enough I did watch the BBC mini series towards the end of last year, and enjoyed it a great deal. Have you heard of David Bellos book "The Novel of the Century"? It's all about Les miserables, the history of the book, the various translations and so on, Mark at Booktime with Elvis talked about it in his Les miserables video .

I would like to mention (althogh I think I did previously) my favorite book that I try to get people to read. It's Seventeenth Summer by Maureen Daly. I have it in hard cover with color illustrations. I've read it many times since I was 13 but it's still good. It breaks my heart in different ways everytime I read it but I love it. I also wanted to mention my favorite movie that I try to get people to watch. It's "Love With the Proper Stranger" starring Natalie Wood and Steve McQueen. They haven't made a good DVD of it but you can rent it or buy it with On Demand, if you have that. I also just wanted to mention the book The Dollmaker by Harriet Arnow Simpson. It is hard to get but I just got an extra paperback copy through Thrift Books. It's one that made me actually sob at one point too. It's very well written. Anyway, thank you for your vlog.

Yes! I'm reading this now and loving it! I haven't gotten to the long sewer-section yet, but I think the Hugo of Les Miserables sees himself as the poet of the most fetid and unpleasant elements of society; shining a light on the poverty and privation and social-mire that most people find utterly repugnant and stomach-turning and want to ignore. On this theme of sewage, even in the Waterloo section, Hugo makes a big deal out of one specific word - 'Yonder are all the kings of Europe, the general’s flushed with victory, the Jupiter’s darting thunderbolts; they have a hundred thousand victorious soldiers, and back of the hundred thousand a million; their cannon stand with yawning mouths, the match is lighted; they grind down under their heels the Imperial guards, and the grand army; they have just crushed Napoleon, and only Cambronne remains,-only this earthworm is left to protest. He will protest. Then he seeks for the appropriate word as one seeks for a sword. His mouth froths, and the froth is the word. In face of this mean and mighty victory, in face of this victory which counts none victorious, this desperate soldier stands erect. He grants its overwhelming immensity, but he establishes its triviality; and he does more than spit upon it. Borne down by numbers, by superior force, by brute matter, he finds in his soul an expression: “Excrément!”'
