About This Novel
"1993" is the last novel by Victor Hugo, the French romantic master who is renowned in the world of literature. In the novel, Hugo created three central characters: the Marquis de Landenac, the leader of the Vendée rebels, his grandnephew, Guo Wan, the commander of the Republican Army who suppressed the rebellion, and Simourdan, Guo Wan's tutor and commissioner of the Public Security Commission. An intricate plot unfolded around them, vividly describing the life-and-death struggle between the bourgeoisie and feudal forces. At the end of the novel: Landenac discovered his conscience and returned to the burning castle to rescue the three children. Guo Wan was moved by his uncle's humanitarian spirit and was willing to trade his own head for Landenac's life. Simourdan shot himself while Guo Wan's head fell to the ground.
