Hello, I am Adèle Hugo, wife of Victor Hugo.
Some claim that I'm a robot. I don't believe a word of it! I am here to help you find out more about Victor Hugo and about this house which I am the lady of.
Oh damn Adele (not a robot) wants to text me, what should I ask her??

Quote
(Hugo's) letters to Adele display a related but separate need, as revealed through the avidity of young love: that of validation from his loved ones. 'It would be impossible for me to live without being loved by you', he told her. Fearing both abandonment and indignity, he warned her that he could be desperately jealous. 'Love is neither true nor pure if it is not jealous in nature.' He was envious of her younger brother for sometimes sharing her bed and of her uncle for enjoying an evening out with her.
Victor Hugo, Critical Lives, by Bradley Stephens

My duty is to wait upon her steps, to envelop her existence with my own, to be her defence against all perils, to offer her my head to set her foot on, even to place myself between her and every sorrow, without making any claim for myself — without expecting any reward.
Victor Hugo to Adele Foucher, January 1820.

how do I illustrate a chapter that says 'marius isn't to blame' for actively separating Valjean from his daughter cause he had 'reasons' to do it, I guess the gaslighting too, and then proceeds to say also that Cosette is in the wrong? as well? for allowing herself to be gaslit I guess????? but that she is also not to blame because she is happy you see, like an ungrateful child

Victor-Marie Hugo
(1802-45) was born in France, the third son of an army general. A sickly infant, he was not expected to live, but grew more robust from the age of two when he went to live with his mother in Paris-“The birthplace to my soul.”
As a teenager, Hugo began to fill his notebooks with poetry. In maturity he was a prolific and very successful poet, dramatist, and novelist, and the most celebrated author of his generation. Victor Hugo produced an enormous output of work, including the novels Notre-Dame de Paris (1831; The Hunchback of Notre-Dame) and Les Misérables (1862); the plays Cromwell (1827), Hernani (1830), and Ruy Blas (1838); and the poetry collections Les Châtiments (1853) and Les Contemplations (1856).
The Romantic life of Hugo began when as a teenager; he fell in love with a neighbor's daughter, Adele Foucher. His mother discouraged the romance, believing that her son should marry into a finer family but after his mother's death he did marry Adele. For three years, Victor Hugo and Adele Foucher exchanged secret messages. The following letter was written shortly after Hugo was promised a pension from Louis XVIII as a reward for his loyalty. This pension allowed the couple to marry. Their marriage lasted until her death in 1868.
Friday evening, March 15, 1822
 After the two delightful evenings spent yesterday and the day before, I shall certainly not go out tonight, but will sit here at home and write to you.
 Besides, my Adele, my adorable and adored Adele, what have I not to tell you?
O, God! for two days, I have been asking myself every moment if such happiness is not a dream.
It seems to me that what I feel is not of earth. I cannot yet comprehend this cloudless heaven.
You do not yet know, Adele, to what I had resigned myself. Alas, do I know it myself?
Because I was weak, I fancied I was calm; because I was preparing myself for all the mad follies of despair, I thought I was courageous and resigned.
 Ah! let me cast myself humbly at your feet, you who are so grand, so tender and strong!
I had been thinking that the utmost limit of my devotion could only be the sacrifice of my life; but you, my generous love, were ready to sacrifice for me the repose of yours.
You have been privileged to receive every gift from nature, you have both fortitude and tears.
Oh, Adele, do not mistake these words for blind enthusiasm - enthusiasm for you has lasted all my life, and increased day by day.
My whole soul is yours.
 If my entire existence had not been yours, the harmony of my being would have been lost, and I must have died -- died inevitably.
These were my meditations, Adele, when the letter that was to bring me hope of else despair arrived.
If you love me, you know what must have been my joy. What I know you may have felt, I will not describe.
My Adele, why is there no word for this but joy? Is it because there is no power in human speech to express such happiness?
The sudden bound from mournful resignation to infinite felicity seemed to upset me. Even now I am still beside myself and sometimes I tremble lest I should suddenly awaken from this dream divine.
Oh, now you are mine! At last you are mine! Soon -- in a few months, perhaps, my angel will sleep in my arms, will awaken in my arms, will live there.
All your thoughts at all moments, all your looks will be for me; all my thoughts, all my moments, all my looks, will be for you!
 My Adele!
Adieu, my angel, my beloved Adele! Adieu!
I will kiss your hair and go to bed.
Still I am far from you, but I can dream of you.
Soon perhaps you will be at my side.
 Adieu; pardon the delirium of your husband who embraces you, and who adores you, both for this life and another.

@pilferingapples replied to your text post: Really? I know she had a lot of letters where she was protesting how Not Ready she was, that she would never be able to keep up with his writing, etc. If this bio has more enthusiastic letters from her, I definitely want it for that!
I thought I recalled that from the Robb bio (though of course it’s so long that I have def forgotten things) but this one seems to imply that she was More For It? With less evidence I think. He only talks about the letters and doesn’t show them, though he talks about them writing to each other in secret after Hugo’s mother (and Adele’s family) forbid them from seeing each other, and signing their letters as husband and wife. So this guy at least seems to think Adele was more into it? 
Of course, there’s still the story about Hugo following the Fouchers on foot when they took Adele further away, at one point, because he couldn’t afford the fare to get there any other way. Which...I had forgotten about that. Don’t do that fellas, it’s creepy.

Hey look, uh, I refused to pay money for Fascinating Womanhood but I was reading a bit on Amazon
She literally says that Victor Hugo’s love for Adele Foucher is a great example of someone who gets what she is trying to get across as the Peak Hetero Love Experience
I’m not out to pick a fight but maybe a guy whose death put every brothel in Paris into mourning is not the right choice for an example of Christian Hetero Love Ideals?
