Industry Reviews
"If you think that at the end of 'Les Miserables' Jean Valjean's adopted daughter Cosette gets married and lives happily ever after, think again....Of course, much of this cast is Victor Hugo's, but Laura Kalpakian manages to add some lively new characters of her own."
New York Times Book Review - Robin Tzannes (07/16/1995)
"Kalpakian tirelessly constructs these recklessly romantic characters and captures the original's defiant, tragic spirit....The bittersweet conclusion...is true to the genre Kalpakian emulates."
Publishers Weekly (06/19/1995)
