Product Description
Book Description
This Elibron Classics book is a facsimile reprint of a 1879 edition by Macmillan & Co., London.
About the Author
Victor Hugo (1802-1885) was a novelist, poet, and dramatist, the most important of French Romantic writers. In his preface to his historical play Cromwell (1827) Hugo wrote that romanticism is the liberalism of literature. Hugo developed his own version of the historical novel, combining concrete, historical details with vivid, melodramatic, even feverish imagination. Among his best-known works are The Hunchback of Notre Dame and Les Misérables.
Victor Hugo is one of the greatest personalities of French literature. Though not without the faults and eccentricities which frequently characterize great geniuses, he never entered any field of literature without excelling in it. The novel, the lyric, the drama, criticism, all fell from his facile pen without apparent effort.

Very Impressive,

This review is from: Cast Up by the Sea (Paperback)
Hugo's hidden novel - 'Cast Up By the Sea' - is in line with his 'Toilers of the Sea', provids an extremely intriguing, unpredictable story, more of his masterful prose, and the delectation of a coastal purview.
