The Mystery of Edwin Drood by Charles Dickens
Dicken's last novel is a mystery built around a presumed crime - the murder of a nephew by his uncle. He died before completing the story, leaving the mystery unsolved and encouraging successive generations of readers to turn detective.Charles Dickens (1812-70) had his first, astounding success with his first novel The Pickwick Papers and never looked back. In an extraordinarily full life he wrote, campaigned and spoke on a huge range of issues, and was involved in many of the key aspects of Victorian life, by turns cajoling, moving and irritating. He completed fourteen full-length novels and volume after volume of journalism. The Mystery of Edwin Drood was Dickens's final, and tantalizingly unfinished, novel.
The Pickwick Papers, Oliver Twist, Nicholas Nickleby, The Old Curiosity Shop, Barnaby Rudge, A Christmas Carol, Martin Chuzzlewit, Dombey and Son, David Copperfield, Bleak House, Hard Times, Litte Dorrit, A Tale of Two Cities, Great Expectations, and Our Mutual Friend are also published in the Penguin English Library.
