Three of the brilliant novelist's best-known classics in one volume, offering a wide-ranging portrait of nineteenth-century British society. A perfect introduction to the world of Charles Dickens, this volume contains three of his greatest novels. Little Dorrit: An epic tale of two families in Victorian England, one wealthy and the other living in a debtors' prison, and their shifting fortunes. David Copperfield: A sprawling masterpiece—and the inspiration for the new film starring Dev Patel—about a boy making his way to manhood in nineteenth-century England. Hard Times: A young girl from the circus world is taken in by a repressed school superintendent and his family in a dreary mill town—and brings unexpected change to their lives.
Charles Dickens (1812-1870) was one of England's greatest writers. Best known for his classic serialized novels, such as Oliver Twist, A Tale of Two Cities, and Great Expectations, Dickens wrote about the London he lived in, the conditions of the poor, and the growing tensions between the classes. He achieved critical and popular international success in his lifetime and was honored with burial in Westminster Abbey.
