About the author
Born in Besançon, France, in 1802, Victor Hugo grew into one of the most important writers of the 19th century. He worked across poetry, fiction, and drama, and helped shape the Romantic movement in France. Outside France, he is especially remembered for Notre-Dame de Paris (published in 1831, later widely known in English as The Hunchback of Notre-Dame) and Les Misérables (1862).
Hugo was more than a novelist. He was also a public figure, journalist, and political voice who spoke out on social issues and human rights. Part of his life was spent in exile after opposing Napoleon III, and that experience strengthened the moral and political force in his later work.
When he died in Paris in 1885, Hugo was honored with a national funeral, a sign of how deeply he had shaped French cultural life. His books still endure because they combine sweeping drama with sympathy for ordinary people, asking big questions about mercy, poverty, law, and hope.
