Published in 2001 by State Street Press as part of the Borders Leatherbound Classics series, this edition features two of Victor Hugo’s most celebrated works: The Hunchback of Notre-Dame and Les Miserables. The former is presented in its full, unabridged form, while the latter is offered in an abridged version. These two masterpieces extend far beyond storytelling. The Hunchback of Notre-Dame played a pivotal role in sparking a movement to preserve the Notre-Dame Cathedral, securing its place as a symbol of Paris. Meanwhile, Les Miserables stands as a timeless work of social commentary, continuing to inspire readers, thinkers, and activists worldwide. This hardcover edition has a navy blue bonded leather binding with gold detailing on the covers and spine. It is complemented by blue endpapers and gilt page edges, making it a solid addition to any library. The book was printed and bound in the USA. The book is in good condition with signs of wear consistent with age. Notably, visible shelf wear, bumping on the cover and spine ends, and light scuffing on the gilded edges. The interior pages are clean and free of marks. Please Note: As with all vintage items, natural signs of wear and patina are present, which may not be fully captured in the photos. Color variations may also occur. Feel free to reach out with any questions or requests for additional information before purchasing!
