Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set in 19th-century England, the novel explores themes of social injustice and the human condition through the tragic story of Gwynplaine, a boy disfigured by a permanent smile. As he navigates a world that both ridicules and adores him, the narrative delves into the complexities of love, identity, and the struggle against societal norms. Hugo's rich prose and vivid characters create a poignant commentary on the nature of happiness and suffering, making this work a significant addition to his literary legacy.
