Ninety-Three
Autor Victor Hugoen Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 iun 2026
In the turmoil of the French Revolution, the year 1793 represented the peak of bloody revolutionary violence. Victor Hugo plunges into this tumultuous period with a story of courage and betrayal across the political classes. As the revolution rages, three characters - a nobleman turned revolutionary, a devoted mother, and a zealous commander - find their fates intertwined in a struggle that tests their convictions and loyalties. Hugo's last great novel was also his most political and prophetic - and is the equal of Les Misérables in drama, emotion, adventure and sacrifice.

Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
A historical novel built upon the questions "Can a good action be a bad action? Does not he who spares the wolf kill the sheep?" centers on revolutionary France; just as the plot is an abstract judicial difficulty, the hero is an abstract historical force.
