This collection gathers verse from across his long career. The poet familiar to readers of his novels speaks here through intimate feelings and a large, public voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLes Feuilles d'automne turns toward home and family, while La Légende des siècles reaches toward humanity and its stories. Elsewhere, Hugo confronts Louis Napoleon and mourns his daughter Léopoldine. Marriage, children, political upheaval, and bereavement give these poems their roots. Light and darkness return as images of hope and despair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInside this book\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour and daring\u003c\/strong\u003e – Meet the young poet through bright verse alive with colour and sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe room at home\u003c\/strong\u003e – Discover how family life draws Hugo's attention from distant lands toward the familiar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA voice against power\u003c\/strong\u003e – Feel the anger of a poet whose opposition to a ruler turns verse into protest.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrief for Léopoldine\u003c\/strong\u003e – Encounter poems rooted in a father's pain after the sudden death of his beloved daughter.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight against darkness\u003c\/strong\u003e – Follow recurring images that give hope and despair a vivid presence across Hugo's poetry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003ePerfect for readers who know Hugo's novels and want his voice in verse, and those drawn to family, politics, and grief.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOpen the first page now and meet Hugo in the colour, tenderness, and fury of his poems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Library of Alexandria Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59534623375708,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/9442\/8764\/files\/00724_en_ebook-front_c24.jpg?v=1792174972","url":"https:\/\/libraryofalexandria.com\/it\/products\/poesie","provider":"The Library of Alexandria","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
