The historical background, translation notes, and all those extra stuff included in the edition are really helpful. I haven't read this one just repeating what I've heard.

The novel elaborates upon the history of France, the architecture and urban design of Paris, politics, moral philosophy, antimonarchism, justice, religion, and the types and nature of romantic and familial love. The novel is divided into five volumes, each volume divided into books, and subdivided into chapters for a total of three hundred sixty-five chapters.

Each chapter is relatively short, usually no longer than a few pages.

Nevertheless, the novel as a whole is quite lengthy by modern standards, exceeding fourteen hundred pages in unabridged editions nineteen hundred pages in French. It also contains what has many times, incorrectly, been considered the longest sentence in a published novel. Within the borders of the novel's story, Hugo fills many pages with his thoughts on religion, politics, and society, including several lengthy digressions, one being a discussion on enclosed religious orders, one on the construction of the Paris sewers, another being on argot, and most famously, his retelling of the Battle of Waterloo.
