“Under Sentence of Death - Or, a Criminal's Last Hours” is a fictional account of the trial and sentencing of a man that ultimately leads to his death. A thought-provoking insight to a criminal's last moments, “Under Sentence of Death” is not to be missed by fans of Hugo's work, and it would make for a worthy addition to any collection. Victor Marie Hugo (1802 – 1885) was a French novelist, dramatist, and poet belonging to the Romantic movement. He is widely hailed as one of the most accomplished and well-known French writers, originally achieving renown for his poetical endeavours—the most notable of which are the volumes “Les Contemplations” and “La Légende des siècles”. Outside of his native country, Hugo's best-known works are his novels: “Les Misérables” (1862) and “Notre-Dame de Paris” (1831), commonly known as “The Hunchback of Notre-Dame”. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this book now in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
