After reading Les Misérables, examine how Hugo uses the character of Jean Valjean to present his main theme in the novel. Be sure that one of the passages that you examine is chosen from p512-520. Also, your conclusion must use a powerful or relevant quote from the novel, addressing the unit’s Essential Question: can a story, poem, or novel change the reader’s life?
Examine a total of 4 passages in your body paragraphs and use a fifth passage in your concluding paragraph to help answer the unit’s Essential Question. Remember that one of your four passages in the body paragraphs needs to be from THE LAST PAGES OF THE BOOK (p512-520).
