When Dickens wrote Bleak House he had grown up-- G.K. Chesterton
The power of [Dickens] is so amazing that the reader at once becomes his captive. -- William Makepeace Thackeray
The power of [Dickens] is so amazing that the reader at once becomes his captive. -- William Makepeace Thackeray
A literary phenomenon in his lifetime and renowned as much for his journalism and public speaking as for his novels, Charles Dickens (1812–70) now ranks as the most important Victorian writer and one of the most influential and popular authors in the English language. His memorable and vividly rendered characters and his combination of humour, trenchant satire and compassion have left an indelible mark on our collective imagination.
