"Les Misérables."

He has no idea if Courfeyrac's run across mentions of it in his historical reading, but he may have.

"A novel of 1862, by Victor Hugo. A book of social protest -- it seems his politics improve, though he remains more moderate than one might wish -- quite popular. Influential."

"It includes the uprising of '32. Apparently it features us as well, to some degree. Our society -- and Marius and apparently his courtship, and others. M. Fauchelevent in particular. I don't know how accurately."
