Delphi Collected Works of Eugene Sue (Illustrated)

Described by Victor Hugo as 'The Dickens of Paris', Eugene Sue was a prolific author that popularised the genre of the serial novel in France. Sue wrote the much-admired and widely imitated 'The Mysteries of Paris', as well as many other sensational novels, exploring the seamy side of urban life. Though known for their melodramatic quality, Sue's novels were the first to tackle the social ills that accompanied the Industrial Revolution in France.
