Han d'Islande by Victor Hugo
"Han d'Islande" by Victor Hugo is a novel published in 1823. Set in 1699 Norway, it follows young nobleman Ordener Guldenlew on a perilous quest to find the savage Han of Iceland, who possesses documents that could save his beloved Ethel's dishonored father. Meanwhile, Han terrorizes the region with his polar bear companion, seeking vengeance against humanity. Political conspiracies, a miners' revolt, and dark intrigue converge in this early Gothic tale that
explores themes of capital punishment and social injustice. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
