The Slave King: From The Bug Jargal (1833) is a novel written by French author Victor Marie Hugo. The book is a historical fiction that tells the story of a slave uprising in the French colony of Saint-Domingue (now Haiti) during the late 18th century. The protagonist of the novel is a young slave named Pierrot, who is known as The Bug Jargal due to his exceptional strength and courage. Pierrot is chosen by his fellow slaves to lead them in a rebellion against their cruel French masters. The novel explores themes of slavery, freedom, and the struggle for justice, as well as the complex relationships between colonizers and the colonized. The Slave King: From The Bug Jargal (1833) is a powerful and thought-provoking work of historical fiction that sheds light on the brutal realities of slavery and the human desire for freedom and justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
