Produktbeschreibung
The stage drama and book No Thoroughfare, by Charles Dickens and Wilkie Collins, were both published in December 1867. No Thoroughfare: A Drama: In Five Acts was a theatre drama written in 1867 by Charles Dickens and Wilkie Collins. Previously, the two had worked together on the play The Frozen Deep. Dickens' final stage production was this one; he passed away in June 1870. On December 26, 1867, the drama had its premiere at the Adelphi Theatre. The first edition of Dickens' book No Thoroughfare appeared in the Christmas issue of his magazine All the Year Round in 1867. Other books from Dickens's mature writings, like Little Dorrit (1857) and Our Mutual Friend, have similar themes to this one (1865). An early instance of commercial merchandising, the story's publication in All The Year Round promoted both the play to those who had read the book and the story to those who were aware of the theatrical production. The book's chapters, which are referred to as "acts," correspond to the scenes in the play. The narrative includes skillfully worded descriptions, diverse and well-drawn people, unsettling and exotic settings, mystery, partially revealed identities, near-death experiences, romance, and the ultimate triumph of Good over Evil.

Autorenporträt
Charles Dickens (1812-1870) byl proslulý anglický spisovatel a sociální kritik, veobecn¿ povaovaný za jednoho z nejv¿tích spisovatel¿ viktoriánské éry. Dickens se narodil v anglickém Portsmouthu a proil t¿ké d¿tství poznamenané finan¿ní nouzí, která pozd¿ji do znäné míry ovlivnila jeho tvorbu. Dickens se proslavil sériov¿ vydávanými romány, v nich dokázal spojit humor, pronikavý spole¿enský post¿eh a hluboce lidské charaktery. Jeho díla osv¿tlují problémy chudých, nedostatky institucionálních systém¿ a velké rozdíly mezi spole¿enskými vrstvami v Anglii 19. století. Dnes je Dickens oslavován nejen pro svá poutavá vypráv¿ní, ale také pro sv¿j trvalý vliv na literaturu a spole¿nost.
