Notre-Dame de Paris (The Hunchback of Notre-Dame) - Vol 2 (of 3) [French English Bilingual Edition] by Victor Hugo Victor Hugo is an eminent 19th century French novelist (and poet). Les Miserables is considered one of the most influential works of literature in the 19th century. The bilingual edition series is a continuing project making available great original French writers' texts along with their English translation. We believe that this edition, which offers after every original language paragraph its translation, makes both grammar and vocabulary checks as painless as possible. Idiomatic forms that could be overlooked can be easily detected. Furthermore, large paragraphs have been broken down to much smaller units so that the check is as effortless as possible. We do hope that by reading French writers that defined the language itself or whose work permeated the French culture, you will be able to get the maximum benefit from this language series. Although this edition is not a replacement for traditional methods of learning language, it is a very powerful tool to speed up the process once you have attained the intermediate level and beyond.
