Suffering has been stronger than all other teaching, and has taught me to understand what your heart used to be. I have been bent and broken, but-I hope-into a better shape.' -Estella, Great Expectations Charles Dickens (1812-1870) an English novelist, is generally considered the greatest of the Victorian era. Dickens worked as a journalist in political newspapers, making close observations about society in the churn of Industrialization. His work reflects his belief that society's blinding greed for money and its neglect of the lower classes are its major flaws. Through his books, he exhorts virtues of a loving heart and the pleasures of home in a flawed, cruelly indifferent world. The Definitive Charles Dickens includes one of his famous novels, Great Expectations; a play, Is She His Wife; a novella, Master Humphrey's Clock; a short story, The Trial for Murder; and his letters to his friends and family, which allow readers a glimpse of Dickens as a person and how he led his life.
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.
