I’m going to be spending some time on the sadder themes of Les Miserables, but I want to note this novel is immensely popular, and the storytelling balances the harrowing with the triumphant, so it isn’t all misery. Here are some quotes to give you a feel for the beauty of Victor Hugo’s prose.

”I will weep for the children of kings with you, if you will weep with me for the little ones of the people.”

”Be it true or false, what is said about men often has as much influence upon their lives, and especially upon their destinies, as what they do.”

”The bishop’s palace at D—was contiguous to the hospital. The palace was a spacious and beautiful edifice, built of stone near the beginning of the last century by Monseigneur Henri Pujet, a doctor of theology of the Faculty of Paris, abbé of Simore, who was bishop of D— in 1712. The palace was in truth a lordly dwelling: there was an air of grandeur about everything, the apartments of the bishop, the saloons, the chambers, court of honour, which was very large, with arched walks after the antique Florentine style, and a garden planted with magnificent trees.”

”Madame Magloire usually called him Your Greatness. One day he rose from his armchair, and went to his library for a book. It was upon one of the upper shelves, and as the bishop was rather short, he could not reach it. ‘Madame Magloire,’ said he, ‘bring me a chair. My greatness does not extend to this shelf.’”

”Liberation is not deliverance. A convict may leave the galleys behind, but not his condemnation.”

QOTD: What do you think of the prose of Victor Hugo?

Throwback to when I read the National Book Award winning James by Percival Everett last year just like everyone else.

I remember when this one came in on submission, the excitement was palpable across the floor.

What’s wild is that I haven’t worked at Knopf Doubleday in nearly two years, just to give you some perspective on how long it still takes for the book to come out.

I’m still at Penguin Random House, just now I’m in corporate instead of within a publishing division. It’s been an amazing learning experience, but I also hope one day I’ll be closer to the books again.

QOTD: have you read James or do you plan to?

January felt long and February flew by with speed. It is the start of a new month. And a new season: spring.

The beginning of 2025 has been hard on me. I’ve not even read as much as I’d have liked, which has left me with strong feelings of inadequacy. So I’m welcoming this new month with some books and lots of cozy vibes.

Will you join me? Grab a book and a cup of coffee (or a drink of your choice) and cuddle in your book nook. Be gentle with yourself. You got this.
