Because I’m quite ambitious with my reading selections, I’ve decided to finally read one of the greatest novels ever written – Les Miserables, by Victor Hugo.
Thinking that it would be quite easy to find, since it is one of the pillars of classic literature, I was quite surprised when I couldn’t find a copy of it in the 2 different bookstores I recently went to.
Because I was so happy with one of my local bookstore’s online shopping service, which proved so reliable with my last order, I decided to use it again today.
I was quite surprised when the search result turned out to be:
I would think that any respectable bookstore would have a well-stocked “Classics” section. I didn’t even consider that the bookstores I’ve visited wouldn’t have Les Miserables in stock. Strange.
Oh well.
The search continues…
don’t let yourself be overwhelmed with difficult readings. read on.
It’s actually going pretty well, and I’m surprised that it’s a relatively easy read…
