“Through his works and his career, Dickens became a major symbol of 19th-century London and Victorian society as a whole. His thoughtful melancholy and bright humor reflected two powerful currents of the English worldview, his energy and optimism embodied the progress of that era, and calling for social reforms, he voiced all the trends of his time. So, begin your acquaintance with Charles Dickens." (Peter Ackroyd)
“Dickens went from serious financial difficulties to significant wealth, from neglect as a child to universal worship in adulthood, from dubious acquaintances to a private audience at Queen Victoria's. His life itself exemplifies the Victorian ideal of solving all problems on one's own. He was the object of worldwide adoration on a scale unprecedented for that time.” (Paul Schlicke)
* * *The inimitable Charles Dickens was a sensitive and pleasant person, completely devoid of arrogance and arrogance, and instantly endeared himself to people . Paul Schlicke, chairman of the board of trustees of the Charles Dickens Museum in London, conveys the manner of communication of the talented writer and recreates his portrait as convincingly as if they had spent an evening together at an inn with friendly conversation and a hot aromatic punch. With a foreword by the outstanding British writer, author of the best-selling book “ London. Biography" and the six-volume "History of England" by Peter Ackroyd.
