A man condemned to the guillotine recounts in the first person his last hours of life: the passing of days in the cell, the wait for execution, and the terror at the certainty of his death. Through his interior monologue, Victor Hugo not only portrays the prisoner's suffering but also denounces capital punishment as an inhuman and irreversible penalty.

A classic and brief work, suitable for readers wishing to begin with nineteenth-century French literature.
