Important French writer, artist, and statesman (1802–1885) best known for such canonical novels as Les Misérables and Notre-Dame de Paris (aka The Hunchback of Notre Dame). Much of his literary output was devoted to political and social issues, and in the 1840s he became actively involved in the French government as a legislator and staunch activist on behalf of the Republican cause. In 1851 the controversy surrounding his inflammatory writings denouncing Louis-Napoléon forced him into a two-decade exile, during which his productive creative pace barely slackened. ALS in French, one page, 5.25 x 6.75, January 15, 1841. Hugo pens a brief letter to Alfred Michiels, translated, in full: “I will certainly have great pleasure, Sir, to know the Unknown. M. E. Pellerba (?) as a man of nice talent and of a great future. Please, bring him to me, and give me the pleasure, as soon as possible, to shake both your hands.”3259717 Reverse of second integral page bears an address panel penned in another hand. In very good condition, with intersecting folds, one passing through the last letter of the signature, and scattered toning and light creasing.
