Victor Hugo
A collection of poetry written in the mid-19th century. The work is deeply reflective, exploring themes of love, loss, innocence, and the passage of time. Hugo's verses draw from personal experiences, including poignant memories of family and grief, making the collection both intimate and universal. The opening of this poignant collection introduces us to the poet's inner world, filled with nostalgia and sorrow. Hugo invokes images of pure innocence and virtue as he meditates on the duality of light and darkness present in human existence. He expresses his grief over the loss of his daughter, reflecting on the transient nature of life and the deep emotional scars left by death and remembrance. As he grapples with these themes, the verses evoke a sense of longing for the past and a search for solace amid his profound sadness.
