"He was neither grave, nor handsome, nor pompous - but simply a divinity."
-A contemporary admirer of Victor Hugo
"It is all the more unfortunate that Hugo's last novels...are
practically unobtainable in English. The two finest prose works of English literature in
French - Les Travailleurs de La Mer and L'Homme Qui Rit - have
effectively disappeared ...relegated to unrefreshed libraries and secondhand
bookshops." Graham Robb, Victor Hugo: A Biography
Ninety-Three.
