VC-ctor Hugo achieved, in "The man who laughs", one of the most personal novels, as well as one of the most dramatic stories of the entire literature. His protagonist is a boy kidnapped by children stealers who have deformed his face in such a way that it shows a permanent smile, independently of how his feeling are. After a life of adventures, he manages to recover his rights, but when in use of them he throws a brilliant piece of oratory to describe the sufferings of others, his deformed face makes believe that he is telling a joke and everybody laugh at him. It is a vital work along its violence and many consider it to be VC-ctor Hugo's masterpiece, even if "The hunchback" and "The miserables" are more known. Minimize

Product Reviews

Average Rating:   5/5 stars      


 
 

Hugo's best work, and his least-known.

by   derek_ween ,  Jun 28, 2005
Pros: Amazing story and one of literature's greatest main characters
Cons: Hugo is verbose, which turns off some. Pricey.
The Bottom Line: "The Man Who Laughs" is Victor Hugo's greatest work. The Paper Tiger edition is the only one available new today, and is worth the high price tag.
Review: Most people know of Victor Hugo, or at least have heard of his more popular works (Les Miserables, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, etc.), however, very few people, even among the literati, are aware of Hugo's best and most unique work: "The Man Who Laughs." ...
