In 1823, Hugo published his first novel, Han d’Islande. In 1822, Hugo married his childhood sweetheart, Adele Foucher, and published his first volume of poetry, which won him a pension from Louis XVIII. Although he studied law, he also founded a literary review to which he and other emerging writers published their work. Hugo, the son of one of Napoleon’s officers, decided while still a teenager to become a writer. Distracted by other projects, Hugo had continually postponed his deadlines for delivering the book to his publishers, but once he sat down to write it, he completed the novel in only four months. On January 15, 1831, Victor Hugo finishes writing Notre Dame de Paris, also known as The Hunchback of Notre Dame.
