1. Les Miserables
By: Alashia and Bre

2. “Such is the indifference of
Heaven”
 Hugo was referring to the
sky as having indifferent
characteristics rather than
being indifferent its self.
This is a type of figurative
language because it gives
the sky a human character
trait which is also referred
to as personification.

3. “Javert was like a Tiger in the
Night”
 Hugo used a simile to
compare Javert’s behavior.
He was compared to a
Tiger because he was
never seen coming but
would always find his “prey”
Jean Valjean where ever he
was.

4. “The Lark”
 Hugo used a metaphor to
compare Cosette to a Lark in
Les Miserables. She was
helpless and was relying on
the Thenardier’s to take care
of her but she was turned
into a servant.
