Les Misérables

A novel written by Victor Hugo, first published in 1862, that has film and musical adaptations.
Consisting of 5 parts, all of which are set in different times, the novel can be considered as 5 volumes rather than the 1 book.

The most well known and regarded part is set in June 1832 and based loosely around the June rebellion. Important characters and dates in this section are accurate as Victor Hugo (the author) was present for part of said rebellion.
Les Misérables also happens to be the best selling musical of all time. It was first opened and performed in English on the 8th of October, 1985 by the Royal Shakespeare Company.
The film was released in 2012.

Les Misérables is amazing but the film casting, as well as the casting in previous musical productions, has sparked conflict within fans. Fans of the novel are often not fond of the musical as it is inaccurate,

Les Miserables

A play based on a book which was originally written in French. All of the characters, with the exception of Marius and Cosette, die. It is set during the French Revolution. It was originally preformed on Broadway in 1987.

Do you hear the people sing? Lost in the valley of the night. It is the music of a people who are climbing to the light. For the wretched of the earth there is a flame that never dies. Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise. They will live again in freedom in the garden of the lord. They will walk behind the plowshare. They will put away the sword. The chain will be broken and all men will have their reward. Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me? Somewhere beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see? Do you hear the people sing? Say do you hear the distant drums? It is the future that they bring when tomorrow comes.

Miserablism

A mental disorder or belief system rooted in societal blame or bigotry for one’s own short comings or failures. “Miserablism” uses demoralization, shame, guilt and legal persuasion in order to force others to accept, adapt, glorify and celebrate the created misery or failed reality of the miserablist.

Suffering from miserablism, Alex often cried foul and blamed others when he got a bad grade, didn’t get picked for the team or couldn’t land a part time job. Although Alex never studied, never worked out and couldn’t pass a drug test he blamed the teachers, the coaches and employers of being bigots and had them all fired.
