HUGO LETTERS AND PROSE


This section will contain excerpts from Hugo's journals, letters, and public speeches and prose works related to Napoleon III, Hugo's exile years, his return to France, and the aftermath of The Paris Commune. This is a work-in-progress, and much of this material will find its way into an expanded second edition of the book.
