“The man who laughs” is the historical novel by V. Hugo about the events taking place in England at the turn of the XVII -XVIII centuries. In the center of the story is the fate of Guinplem, who was disfigured physically in early childhood, but retained a beautiful and noble soul in a cruel world. The path from the fair actor to a member of the parliament lies through unbearable suffering, healed by love, which is not subject to even death.
