A well-known novel written in the mid-19th century. The narrative primarily focuses on the life of impoverished street children in Paris, with particular emphasis on a character referred to as the ''gamin,'' representing the struggles and innocence of youth living in destitution. The author weaves themes of social injustice and the resilience of the human spirit throughout this exploration of urban life. The beginning of this section introduces us to the despairing environment of Paris, detailing the lives of street children who navigate the city's challenges without parental guidance or financial security. It highlights the carefree yet precarious existence of these children, particularly focusing on the character of a cheerful street urchin who embraces freedom despite his harsh circumstances. The text captures the essence of their daily lives, their simple joys, and the underlying tension of social inequality that defines their existence. The narrative sets the stage for further exploration of their journey and the impact of societal structures on their lives.
