About the author

Charles Dickens

1812–1870

Famous for unforgettable characters, sharp humor, and a deep sympathy for ordinary people, this Victorian storyteller turned social criticism into some of the most widely loved novels in English. His books still feel lively and dramatic, whether he is writing about hardship, hope, or the strange comedy of everyday life.
