Cheminant prudemment à travers la lande, il se couche derrière une haie, le museau entre les pattes, attendant une aubaine. Le cou baissé, sans faire de bruit, il réussit soudain à se glisser dans un poulailler : ici, il accule trois gélines qu’il étrangle ; là, il se saisit du coq qui parvient à lui échapper...Malicieux et habile, le renard est le protagoniste de ce roman protéiforme constitué de contes divers, écrits entre 1171 et 1250 par une vingtaine d’auteurs. Tantôt anecdotes, tantôt fables ésopiques, les récits de ce recueil célèbrent avec espièglerie ce maître incontesté de la ruse qui invente à plaisir mensonges cyniques et flatteries douteuses pour séduire et duper ses interlocuteurs.

(Book Jacket Status: Jacketed)It has been said that Victor Hugo has a street named after him in virtually every town in France. A major reason for the singular celebrity of this most popular and versatile of the great French writers is Les MisÃrables (1862). In this story of the trials of the peasant Jean Valjean—a man unjustly imprisoned, baffled by destiny, and hounded by his nemesis, the magnificently realized, ambiguously malevolent police detective Javert—Hugo achieves the sort of rare imaginative resonance that allows a work of art to transcend its genre.Les MisÃrables is at once a tense thriller that contains one of the most compelling chase scenes in all literature, an epic portrayal of the nineteenth-century French citizenry, and a vital drama—highly particularized and poetic in its rendition but universal in its implications—of the redemption of one human being.
