Hugo's first novel, which we know mainly in its later 1826 version, shows an ambivalence and fascination with the notion of Revolution, and a pessimistic vision of inconclusive heroic sacrifice, which link it with a similarly ambivalent novel of the Revolution and similarly inconclusive figure of heroic self-sacrifice, Hugo's last, "Quatre-vingt treize" ("Ninety-three").
