Ninety-Three

In the turmoil of the French Revolution, the year 1793 represented the peak of bloody revolutionary violence. Victor Hugo plunges into this tumultuous period with a story of courage and betrayal across the political classes. As the revolution rages, three characters – a nobleman turned revolutionary, a devoted mother, and a zealous commander – find their fates intertwined in a struggle that tests their convictions and loyalties. Hugo's last great novel was also his most political and prophetic – and is the equal of Les Misérables in drama, emotion, adventure and sacrifice.
