Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Charles Dickens "Dickens," Mr. G.K. Chesterton has written, "is as individual as the sea and as English as Nelson;" and I can find no better excuse than this for writing another and a very little book about him. Dickens is to me a writer apart. I have been reading and re-reading his novels since I was six. I know his characters as I hardly know any of the men and women I have met in the flesh. Dickens is the novelist of the lettered and of the unlettered. The man at the street corner who has hardly heard of Thackeray knows all about Sam Weller and Mrs. Gamp. This is the glory of Dickens, In the pages that follow I have retold, briefly and simply, the events of his life. I have summarised his cheery, gladsome message, and I have endeavoured to suggest the particular value and significance of each of his principal books. A writer so universal inevitably appeals to different men in different manners. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
