Book Description
This collection brings together perhaps the finest of Dickens' shorter novels,
filled with event, character, and the unsurpassed brilliance of his
story-telling.
Oliver Twist enhanced and strengthened Dickens' reputation and contains
classic Dickensian themes - grinding poverty, desperation, fear, temptation and
the eventual triumph of good in the face of great adversity.
Hand Times was attracted by Macaulay for its "sullen socialism", but
20th-century critics - George Bernard Shaw and F.R. Leavis praised it in the
highest terms.
A Tale of Two Cities(1859), Dickens' greatest historical novel, traces
the lives of a group of people caught up in the cataclysm of the French
Revolution and the Terror. A fascinating range of characters and Dickens' usual
superb command of language combine to make this an exciting and tantalising
story.
Great Expectations traces the life of Philio Pirrip (Pip), from a boy of
shallow dream to a man of character. From its dramatic opening on the bleak
Kentish marshes, the story abounds with memorable characters - the blacksmith
Joe Gargery, the mysterious convict Abel Magwitch, the eccentric Miss Havisham
and the beautiful Estella.
