| Résumé : | First published in 1869, The Man Who Laughs (L’Homme qui rit) is one of Victor Hugo’s lesser-known but powerful novels. It tells the story of Gwynplaine, a child disfigured with a permanent grotesque smile, who grows up as a traveling performer in England. Loved by the blind girl Dea but haunted by his monstrous appearance, he becomes a symbol of social injustice, human suffering, and the cruelty of political systems. The novel combines Gothic romance, social criticism, and melodrama, exploring themes of identity, exclusion, and the abuse of power. |
