Les Mis BK2 CHP5

 This chapter was even shorter than the last. One thing that stood out to me was how tired Jean Valjean was. Just reading it started to make me feel tired.

Les Mis BK2 CHP6

 Jean Valjean's life just can't seem to get even a little but better. He's lost pretty much everything in his life. His mother, father, sister, nephews, and nieces are all lost to him in one way or another. He was give a  cruel punishment for the crime of stealing a loaf of bread to feed his starving family. I like what was mentioned in class about how he is a good person that was forced to do bad things by the circumstances around him. Seriously though, was he suppose to just let the children starve to death. One would think that someone would understand his circumstances but I guess not. Hopefully, he can get a fresh start at life but I doubt he will.

Both the book and the movie showed Jean Valjean getting kicked out of all the hotels/inns. I also thought they did a good job of depicting how hungry and tired Jean Valjean was after getting out of prison in the movie. I'd also liked to add that the prison looked absolutely miserable and exhausting.
