"Claude Gueux" is a novella by Victor Hugo that tells the story of a poor man named Claude Gueux, who is driven to theft to provide for his family. After being caught, he is sentenced to prison, where he faces harsh conditions and cruelty from the guards. The narrative explores themes of poverty, social injustice, and the impact of society on individuals, ultimately highlighting Hugo's critique of the penal system and the lack of compassion for the marginalized. Claude's tragic fate underscores the need for reform and empathy towards the oppressed.
