A new 2023 translation into American English from the original French manuscripts of Victor Hugo's classic 1829 The Last Day of a Condemned Man. Hugo's classic early novel is a powerful indictment of the death penalty and a plea to end capital punishment completely. This edition contains an afterword by the translator, a timeline of Hugo's life and a summary of each of Hugo's major works chronologically. This novel follows the thoughts and emotions of a man who is sentenced to death, leading up to his execution. It influenced many novels after it, including Dostoevsky's Notes from a Dead House, Leo Tolstoy's "The Death of Ivan Ilyich" and Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's "One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich". The work is considered a classic of French literature and played a significant role in the abolition of the death penalty in France in the 20th century.
