Produktbeschreibung
Charles John Huffam Dickens FRSA (7 February 1812 - 9 June 1870) was an English writer and social critic. He created some of the world's best-known fictional characters and is regarded by many as the greatest novelist of the Victorian era. His works enjoyed unprecedented popularity during his lifetime, and by the 20th century, critics and scholars had recognised him as a literary genius. His novels and short stories are still widely read today. Born in Portsmouth, Dickens left school to work in a factory when his father was incarcerated in a debtors' prison. Despite his lack of formal education, he edited a weekly journal for 20 years, wrote 15 novels, five novellas, hundreds of short stories and non-fiction articles, lectured and performed readings extensively.
Autorenporträt
Charles Dickens, a towering figure in English literature, needs little advent. His literary works, along with classics like "A Tale of Two Cities," "Great Expectations," and "David Copperfield," have left an indelible mark on literature. One of Dickens's lesser-acknowledged works, "The Lazy Tour of Two Idle Apprentices," is a collaborative effort co-authored with his friend Wilkie Collins. The book, posted in 1857, takes the shape of a travelogue and follows the fictitious adventure of idlers, Thomas Idle and Francis Goodchild. The narrative unfolds as a chain of humorous and reflective sketches recounting their adventures and encounters all through their travels. "The Lazy Tour of Two Idle Apprentices" gives readers a blend of Dickens's wit and Collins's storytelling prowess. The collaborative effort offers a satisfying exploration of person dynamics and the scenic backdrop of the English nation-state. Though not as extensively acclaimed as a number of Dickens's principal novels, this painting showcases the writer's versatility and his capacity to interact readers via numerous literary bureaucracy.
