The Complete Book of Les Misérables Review: A Classic! - This book was a replacement for one that was loaned out and never returned. We are thrilled that we found it and that it arrived in such great condition. Review: book review - This is the full unabridged version of the book. Therefore it is a very long book. However, anyone who has an interest in that period of French history should enjoy the various tales that are woven together. My interest came because I have seen the musical on Broadway and also the touring version. I am also in a volunteer community chorus that recently gave a concert that included select pieces from the musical and I ended up doing research to provide narrative comments to the songs. There are many places where the musical is not true to the book because timelines and placement of certain things are artistically repositioned to suit the needs of the musical. For instance, in the book it is very clear that the Gavroche character is the cast-out son of the Thernardiers (the innkeepers who took care of Cossette for a while), but there isn't even any allusion to that in the musical. The major theme of the book is personal redeption of an individual named Jean Val-Jean. An individual who committed a crime and served time in prison for that crime and several escape attempts. Not long after his release from prison he undergoes an event that turns his life around and he becomes a different type of person who longs to prove to himself that he was not the person he was while in prison. Along the way he is a factory owner, the guardian of the child of one of the workers in his factory, and a benefactor to others. But mixed in with all of this is the historical context of events in France after the French Revolution and the fall of Napoleon. It may not be totally correct in some of the historical references because Victor Hugo apparently did not have access to many things that are now well established as the history of the era, but still the historical part is quite good and written in a way that provides drama and the human element along the way. I would guess, though, that most readers will prefer an abridged (and therefore much shorter) version of this book. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #4,053,083 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #853 in Theater Direction & Production (Books) #1,115 in Broadway & Musicals (Books) #1,799 in Performing Arts History & Criticism | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (52) | | Dimensions | 7.75 x 0.6 x 11.25 inches | | Edition | Reissue | | ISBN-10 | 1628726628 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1628726626 | | Item Weight | 1.96 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 192 pages | | Publication date | March 15, 2016 | | Publisher | Arcade | ## Images ![The Complete Book of Les Misérables - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71anuLwzW0L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Classic! *by H***E on March 3, 2026* This book was a replacement for one that was loaned out and never returned.

I had never heard of this book before now, strangely enough. Having obtained a used copy (hardbound) and been reading through it, I have to tell you that this book, and the background it reveals of how this play came to be SO successful, as well as the wondrously generous behavior that is SO COMMON to each and every local CAST of Les Miserables, reading this wonderful book makes me choke back tears. If you love LES MIS', and want to read about the powerful effect that this beautiful musical has, both on those who see it, *and* upon those who perform IN IT, you really need to obtain a copy of this book. LES MIS' casts, for example, donate hundreds of tickets so that homeless people and other unfortunates can see the play for free and experience it joyous, godly, and uplifting message of kindness and hope. Castmembers frequently, with no pubicity or fanfare, spend many hours a week, regularly, volunteering at homeless shelters, at homes for battered women and children, you name it, the LES MIS' castmembers DO it. This play affects these kindhearted performers SO deeply, that they devote lots of their time to helping others because of the soul-stirring effect that playing these roles in LES MISERABLES always has on them. Reading these accounts, I have to force myself to refrain from sobbing. I cannot recommend this book highly enough, especially if you are already a fan of this play. Currently it is out of print, but is available online Used. Get it. And I hope it will be RE-released now that the film is set to open in the USA on December 25, 2012.
