Another BookVoices review for audio books you can listen using your iPod or MP3 player. Discounted Audio Books are available at Talking Books Direct. -
“Les Miserables is set in Paris after the French Revolution. In the sewers and backstreets we encounter “”the wolf-like tread of crime”"‘, and
assassination for a few sous is all in a day’s work. We weep with the unlucky and heart-broken Fantine, and we exult with the heroic revolutionaries of the barricades: but above all we thrill to the steadfast courage and nobility of soul of ex-convict Jean Valjean, always in danger from the relentless pursuit of the diabolical Inspector Javert.”
