The Beauty and Anguish of Les Misérables! (feat. Lindsay Ellis) | It's Lit! | PBS Digital Studios

Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables is one of history’s most famous novels and one of the longest-running musicals in Broadway history. On this special episode of It’s Lit! we explore how Les Miserable became both a national and revolutionary anthem, and so publicly adored that all 1,900 pages never went out of print.

Be sure to tune into the new Les Misérables adaptation on Masterpiece on PBS. The six episode miniseries continues Sundays at 9/8 central on PBS. You can stream it on PBS.org, PBS Video app on your Apple TV, Roku, Chromecast.
