not to alienate all four of my followers by railing against the grinning man again but Déa being Ursus's bio daughter really makes no sense on sooo many levels in addition to being in direct conflict with the themes of the work.

#the man who laughs #l'homme qui rit #gwynplaine #dea #artwork #i cant even express how much i love them i think about them constantly they make me so so happy #term has just started up again but i havent thought about my thesis in weeks because all ive had in my mind has been Them #i have a lot of thoughts about them which i may share at some point. dea is a trans woman and gwynplaine is genderqueer i know that much #also these are their 1928 designs obviously (i havent read the book yet because i still have 800000 pages of david copperfield yet) #i am on a crusade to get everyone in the entire world to watch the man who laughs (1928) it is all i care about #well i do care a lot about other things too. but right now i have got Priorities

L'Homme qui rit, The Man Who Laughs: A Romance of English History (or By Order of the King/On the King's Command) by Victor Hugo.

A poignant, profound and tragic story. 

One of my top ten.

Every time I work on my translation I find an unfamiliar word/phrase and google it only to find that Victor Hugo is the only person on written record for having used it, the one example being that exact particular context I am trying to decipher.
