Les Miserables means “the unfortunate ones”. Victor Hugo wrote a book about a man named Jean Valjean who had been sentenced to life in prison for stealing a loaf of bread. Valjean is released from prison after doing community service and works as a mayor in the small town of Montreuil. However, he is haunted by his past and spends his life trying to escape his past. He is eventually caught and sent back to prison, where he is again pardoned and released.
