Freedom Human

"Le dernier jour d'un condamné" a été écrit par Victor Hugo en 1829. Indigné par la guillotine et le traitement de la société envers les condamnés, Victor Hugo décida de dénoncer cette aberration à travers son roman: conditions de vie déplorables des prisonniers, traitement inhumain des condamnés en décrivant les souffrances morales et physiques de ces derniers. Le roman est présenté comme un journal intime d'un condamné à mort. Il y écrit ses pensées.
