Les Misérables

I suppose, the only thing I can say in so few words would be this: if you appreciate fine literature, via exquisite characters, history, philosophy, battle between ethics and morals, love and hate, expansive national politics juxtaposed and at war with the lives of mere children ... if you value just such an experience, worthy of the title “epic,” in this case you will not be disappointed.

I may never be able to concisely articulate my feelings on this book. A just review would require many conversations, over specific parts of the book, at different times.

Lastly, a word of caution. This book, more than perhaps any other story I have read, is worthy of its title.
