This collection brings together some of Charles Dickens' immortal depiction of sens - from the grimy London underworld of Oliver Twist and the cobwebbed mansion and spooky moorks of Great Expectations, to the revolutionary background of France in A Tale of Two Cities - as well as characters such as the Artful Dodgers, Miss Havisham and the Dafarges. Dickens' ability to observe and record human character and environment have placed him at the top table of English writers alongside Shakespeare and Austen, and his titles are still as popular today as they were upon first publication.
