France's highest appeals court says it will allow a modern sequel to
Victor Hugo's classic "Les Miserables". The author's great great
grandson says he's bitterly disappointed in the decision. Quote: "I
am not just fighting for myself, my family and for Victor Hugo but
for the descendants of all writers, painters and composers who should
be protected from people who want to use a famous name and work just
for money."
