Ellendigen - Deel 1 - Fantine

by Victor Hugo

De Ellendigen, of Les Misérables in het Frans, is een epische roman van Victor Hugo die het leven van Jean Valjean, een veroordeelde die probeert een nieuw leven te beginnen, volgt. Het verhaal verkent de sociale en politieke problemen van 19e-eeuws Frankrijk, waaronder armoede, ongelijkheid en de wrede wetten van die tijd. Valjeans worsteling met zijn verleden en zijn zoektocht naar verlossing vormen de kern van het verhaal. Fantine, een jonge vrouw die door de samenleving wordt gemarginaliseerd, is een van de belangrijkste figuren in Deel 1 van de roman. Het verhaal onderzoekt de keuzes die mensen maken in het licht van moeilijke omstandigheden en de impact van de maatschappij op hun levens.
