The Last Day of a Condemned Man Rami A. DalloulThe Last Day of a Condemned Man (1829) is a short novel by Victor Hugo. Having witnessed several executions by guillotine as a young man, Hugo devoted himself in his art and political life to opposing the death penalty in France. Praised by Dostoevsky as absolutely the most real and truthful of everything that Hugo wrote, The Last Day of a Condemned Man is a powerful story from an author who defined nineteenth century French literature.
