Charles Dickens 200th Anniversary Collection Vol. 3
2012 marked the two-hundredth anniversary of Charles Dickens' birth, and this collection gathers some of his most overlooked treasures. These are the stories Dickens wrote for magazines, the sketches he dashed off between novels, the occasional pieces that showed his wit at its most effortless. Here you'll find the sharper Dickens: the satirist, the social observer, the writer who could skewer Victorian pretension in a single page. These aren't the polished novels most people know. They're rawer, more immediate, sometimes stranger. For readers who have devoured 'Great Expectations' and 'Bleak House' and want more, this collection offers something rarer: the pleasure of discovery. Thirty-seven previously unrecorded works, each a window into Dickens' boundless imagination and his tireless fascination with the follies and hardships of ordinary people.
