Silliness

[prokopetz]

Since it’s come up yet again: no, Victor Hugo was not paid by the word to write Les Misérables, nor any of his other notable works.

While Hugo may have been paid a word rate for his early serialised fiction, by the time of Les Mis’ authorship he was sufficiently famous that he was able to command advance payment in a lump sum.

Indeed, he famously caused his publisher a great deal of anxiety by refusing to discuss how long Les Mis would be, leading to fears that he was planning to turn in a tiny pamphlet-length piece, then take the advance and run. His editors were reportedly extremely surprised at what they actually received!

The reason that Les Mis is the way that it is is because Victor Hugo is just Like That.

Saw this painting on my cruise ship and I couldn't help but think of the ABC crew. Enjolras in the red with Combferre and Courfeyac with him, obviously. Grantaire in the vest on the right (perhaps with Bahorel), Marius in blue to the left....

would you fall in love with me again but its Them. inspired by @besiriusiamwild ‘s post about this … pls enjoy

[nortism]

I think he’s gonna be fine you guys

Whether you interpret Enjolras as a raging homosexual or a proud aroace lad, I find it a little funny that everyone collectively agrees that man does NOT like women. Sure, it’s explicitly in the text, but usually you’d get at least a few people desperately trying to cope otherwise.

LES MIS LETTERS IN ADAPTATION - A Group Which Barely Missed Becoming Historic, LM 3.4.1 (Les Miserables 1925)

This was a remarkable group. It vanished in the invisible depths which lie behind us. At the point of this drama which we have now reached, it will not perhaps be superfluous to throw a ray of light upon these youthful heads, before the reader beholds them plunging into the shadow of a tragic adventure.

I love when I get to a passage in a book that I’ve seen out of context before. Today’s gem from Les Mis:

“There are men who seem to be born to be the reverse, the obverse, the wrong side. They are Pollux, Patrocles, Nisus, Eudamidas, Ephestion, Pechmeja. They only exist on condition that they are backed up with another man; their name is a sequel, and is only written preceded by the conjunction and; and their existence is not their own; it is the other side of an existence which is not theirs. Grantaire was one of these men. He was the obverse of Enjolras.”

wanted to draw something soft with these two :›

[angelicughart]

grantaire with long hair and long coat is something that can be so personal

[uponthebarricade]

"who cares about your lonely soul" is so cunty like enjolras could've stopped at "now there is a higher call" but he thought no. i need to destroy this horny straight man's self-esteem. and it worked

[prouvairesverse]
