nothingremarkable 's review for:

Samhällets olycksbarn by Victor Hugo
5.0

“He never went out without a book under his arm, and he often came back with two.”
― Victor Hugo, Les Misérables

How much do I love Les Misérables?
Interminably!

I'm not going to lie. I had never heard of the book before the movie.
I know! Shame on me..
But as soon as a saw the first scen on screen, I was caught. Caught in this webb of misery, war and endless love. I cried and laughted and screamed.

The book on the other hand, is so much more spectacular! I can't put it to words, but Hugo made magic with this story and so many important lifelessons can be taken from this book.

“To love or have loved, that is enough. Ask nothing further. There is no other pearl to be found in the dark folds of life.”
― Victor Hugo, Les Misérables

This is a book that should be mandatory for everyone to read in school!
