Les Miserables question

I read Les Miserables in high school and I remember it being one of my very favorite novels - however it was an abridged version. I would like to reread it and I went to amazon to order one this morning but there are literally thousands of different versions and translations out there. Is one translation necessarily better than the others? I know that I would like an unabridged translation but other than that I am a bit lost... Thanks for any help.

Hmmm... Tough one

if possible, i would like answer to the OP question as well.
