BOOKS PUBLISHED BY CHATTO & WINDUS.

Victor Hugo's Les Misérables: Fan

tine. Now first published in an English Translation, complete and unabridged, with the exception of a few advisable omissions. Post Svo, illustrated boards, 25.

"This work has something more than the beauties of an exquisite style or the word-compelling power of a literary Zeus to recommend it to the tender care of a distant posterity: in dealing with all the emotions, passions, doubts, fears, which go to make up our common humanity, M. Victor Hugo has stamped upon every page the Hall-mark of genius and the loving patience and conscientious labour of a true artist. But the merits of Les Misérables' do not merely consist in the conception of it as a whole; it abounds, page after page, with details of unequalled beauty."Quarterly Review.

The next volume, COSETTE AND MARIUS, is nearly ready.
