This is an abridged arabic edition of Les Misérables with Arabic and English translation, Published in (2018)
It contains the entire story in 277 pages.
This edition is intended to learn English only bc the Arabic translation is accurate while the English translation is very simplified, so it is great for reading and learning at the same time for Arabic speakers!
The funny thing about it is that this edition contains only 15 chapters with the important parts of the story bc you know it is an abridged edition.
..and despite that, there is a chapter for the PARIS SEWERS.

“Dedma” has been an interesting word for me. I never personally used it but it’s been on my mind for the longest time.
ignoring • the act of ignoring • feigning unawareness • short for "dead malice"
Like it doesn’t just mean ignoring!! It is used with the assumption that someone did you wrong. Like it specifically has something to do with someone who you are trying to be petty with. It’s inherently petty.
It’s interesting to me that we had to create words like these to describe this specific action. We couldn’t just say, “pabayaan mo na.” NO.
We created and use this word because we feel the need to acknowledge or recognize the idea that we are deliberately ignoring someone to keep our own peace, when in fact, we are being petty as hell.
Don’t you think that’s fucking interesting? We are so obsessed with the image of our lives that we try to describe our own experiences for other people in fear of them mischaracterizing us. We have to shape our slangs and language around the idea of being perceived.
We can’t just say we’re ignoring someone. No, we have to say that we’re ignoring them in spite of their shitty attitude. We have to make sure that we are in the right. This slang was so intentionally created for the sake of the “bigger person”.
That shit is interesting to me. To me, personally, I can never use this word because I can never be so petty, though I wish I could. “Dedma.” Wow. Using this word really does give you the image of the bigger person.
J'ai fini mes chers:3

So, uh, I made more of these (part 1), because I love him a lot and I love his stupid face. Also, a random Javert with glasses, because ‘Javert needs glasses’ is one of my favorite Javert headcanons, so yeah.
Used Jin Kim’s sketches as reference for some of these.
Fantine and her long hair, 도둑 (1996)
Bless Valjean and his big muscles for it’s good services.
please make your own ideas and conclusions i find them cool and interesting, also there's two versions because both fields were a real struggle
Why does Enj look like a father scolding his kid ??? 😭😭

Some half-assed sketches :P
bat at hornets nest maybe but "there is no ethical consumption under capitalism" refers to low income communities needing to choose between survival vs being eco friendly. not you continuing to watch the harry potter movies
Gotta say I am both very dubious of, and fascinated by, the concept of a "Jean Valjean Prequel". like...are we gonna focus on the grueling poverty of his life as a peasant in the Ancien Regime? Are we going to watch as multiple generations of his family are literally killed by deprivation and overwork? See the faint echoes of the revolution from the POV of a family that is not at all involved in the politics ? Are we going to just...spend those 19 years he was in prison IN PRISON? Every beating and escape attempt? the casual corruption and cruelty of the officials and guards? Might we get sort of meta and see some riff on Claude Gueux play out there?
the thing is we do actually know what happens to JVV before the book starts and it's all bad, grindingly exhaustingly bad ; if they're committing to that then Respect, honestly, it's not like "poverty and prison are soul crushing" is less relevant these days
And/but if they're not committing to that...what the heck are they gonna do with it ??

“He might be your brother.”
“He is.”
Jean Valjean catches Marius falling from having been shot. He points at an escape route and tells the audience he'll go via the sewerage. (Les Misérables peking opera, 2006)
The fact that I cannot understand Chinese at all, and this was one of the few terminologies I could read (since Japanese uses the same characters) made me accidentally laugh out loud.
It was a jumpscare of comprehension.
I will say, this is obviously my first experiencing watching a Peking Opera, so I'm just not used to the style of writing yet. I really love it though!! I can't believe this artistic, fun, acrobatic way of theatre was hidden away from me 😭😭
It but instead of Pennywise living in the sewers it’s Victor Hugo. Via @honhonhonlafayette [x]
