Which translation of Les Misérables do I read? Is there a definitive answer? I plan on reading an unabridged version btw. Also, I would prefer to read a translation that I can buy a physical version of from Amazon or something.

How's the book?
I'm very familiar with the stage musical, seen it multiple times and love it.
Maybe I should read the book at least once just out of respect and see how it is for myself. But I've heard there's several chapters worth of Hugo describing the architecture and the Parisian sewer systems, doesn't sound all too appealing. Is it worth a read?

I don't see /lit/ mention this book often. Is it worth reading?

Moby Dick isn't that hard to read but much more than plain reading is required to understand it.

Can anyone give me their take on pic related?
