Best Answer

Les Miserables begins by introducing the reader to the minor character Bishop Bienvenu. Jean Valjean is searching for shelter and is told to knock on the Bishop's door. Jean Valjean, allowed to stay the night within the Bishop's home, steals some of Bienvenu's expensive silver and runs away. When Jean Valjean is brought back to Bishop Bienvenu by some men under the suspicion that he stole the silver, Bishop Bienvenu insists they were a gift and that Jean Valjean had forgotten to take also the matching candlesticks. This simple act of the Bishop astounds Jean Valjean who has been hardened by the cruelty of society and the French justice system. This night ultimately leads to Jean Valjean's entire remodeling of his life to become a valued, respected, productive member of society.
