Il Circolo Pickwick - Volii

by Charles Dickens

Overview

Dove si vede come Dodson e Fogg fossero uomini di affari e i loro scrivani uomini di piacere; e come un tenero abboccamento avesse luogo tra il signor Weller e il suo smarrito genitore; e dove si vede inoltre che spiriti eletti si riunissero alla Pica e il Ceppo, e che stupendo capitolo sarà il seguente.

About the Author

Charles Dickens (1812-1870) is probably the greatest novelist England has ever produced, the author of such famous books as A Christmas Carol, Hard Times, Great Expectations, David Copperfield, and Oliver Twist. His innate comic genius and shrewd depictions of Victorian life — along with his indelible characters — have made his books beloved by readers the world over. Dickens was born in Landport, Portsea, England and died in Kent after suffering a stroke. The second of eight children of a family continually plagued by debt, the young Dickens came to know hunger, privation, and the horrors of the infamous debtors' prison and the evils of child labor. These unfortunate early life experiences helped shape many of his greatest works.
