Literature - "Les Misérables"
Dear Everyone,
There is a scene in “Gabriel’s Inferno” in which a male and a female character enter into a discussion about forgiveness and penance. I don’t agree with the view of penance that is presented by the woman and neither does she (it differs from the one presented in the link above). But since the man she is speaking with is distraught, she reasons with him as best she can, taking a much starker, harsher view of penance.
She also mentions forgiveness and she does so by referencing Victor Hugo’s novel "Les Misérables." This work is arguably one of the greatest novels of the nineteenth century and if you haven’t read it yet, you should.
