Les Mis: An Adaptation of Victor Hugo's Masterwork Les Misérables

By Rose Angel Publishing and Eleni Mansoura

Les Mis is a bold and haunting reimagining of Victor Hugo's timeless classic, now set against the backdrop of French-occupied Algeria. This abridged and modernized adaptation brings new depth and cultural resonance to the powerful tale of injustice, mercy, and redemption.

Jean Valjean, a dark-skinned North African man condemned for a petty crime, seeks a path to redemption in a society rigged against him. Fantine, a working-class woman of mixed French and Algerian heritage, is driven to desperation by a cruel and indifferent world. Their lives-along with those of Cosette, Marius, Javert, ponine, and others-intertwine in a sweeping epic of revolution, sacrifice, and the search for grace amid despair.

Americanized for modern readers and stripped to its most essential emotional and political core, Les Mis is a new vision of the classic story-more urgent and human than ever before.
