"Les Misérables, v. 3/5: Marius" by Victor Hugo is a novel written in the mid-19th century. This part of the larger work focuses on the character Marius Pontmercy and introduces themes of social class, youth, and childhood rebellion within the backdrop of Paris. The initial chapters delve into the life of the “gamin,” or street child of Paris, and how their experiences reflect the broader societal issues of the time. The opening portion paints a vivid picture of the gamin, portraying them as both innocent and wise, free yet marginalized. Hugo describes their joyful yet rough existence as they navigate the streets filled with mischief and harsh realities. Through the character of Marius, along with others introduced in the early chapters, the narrative begins to explore the complexities of love, societal expectations, and personal identity amidst the clashing classes of Parisian society. The beginning sets the stage for Marius's journey while emphasizing the innocence and resilience of youth amidst adversity.
