Answer:
Les Misérables by Victor Hugo
Explanation:
So this one is fairly different from the other one, it's a book that was originally written in French. It's about a man named Jean who goes to jail for a long time for stealing bread. He later gets out years later, and struggles finding shelter and a job because he used to be in jail. Anyways, he meets a guy who offers him shelter, and Jean later steals his silver to sell it, the man finds out but kind of allows him because he knows he's suffering.
This is all I know so far because I'm not done reading it, (it's a very big book) but I like it so far.
Also the book was written in 1845, it's old, but interesting. :D
