The Original manuscript of the book published in 1862 contains hundreds of handwritten pages penned by Victor Hugo while he was in exile in Guernsey. It is 945 pages bound in a parchment cover with red and black type designed by Hugo with the title on the front. Les Miserables was the biggest-selling single novel of the 19th century. According the senior curator of Victor Hugo: Les Miserables – From Page to Stage, Hugo puts the people (les misères) that had never really been written about before up front and as the heroes of the story. “The people who would have been the heroes, the upper classes, they come out of it rather badly. It’s a highly political social document and considered one of France’s national treasures.” |
