Ninety-Three by Victor Hugo

"Ninety-Three" by Victor Hugo is a novel published in 1874. Set during the French Revolution's bloody Vendée uprising of 1793, it follows a Royalist marquis, a Republican commander, and a revolutionary priest as their ideologies and loyalties collide in war-torn Brittany. When three orphaned children become trapped between opposing forces, acts of mercy and principle force each man to confront the human cost of revolution. Hugo portrays both sides as idealistic yet ruthless, exploring whether compassion can survive amid political extremism. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
