Les Miserables Volume One

Victor Hugo, in full Victor Marie Hugo (French pronunciation: 26 February 1802 - 22 May 1885) was a French poet, novelist, and dramatist who was the most well-known of all the French Romantic writers. In France, Hugo's literary fame comes first from his poetry but also rests upon his novels and his dramatic achievements. Among many volumes of poetry, Les Contemplations and La L gende des si cles stand particularly high in critical esteem. Outside France, his best-known works are the novels Les Mis rables, 1862, and Notre-Dame de Paris, 1831, (also known in English as The Hunchback of Notre-Dame). -wikipedia
