Sobre aquest llibre
A Tale of Two Cities is a classic novel by Charles Dickens set in the time of the French Revolution. If focuses on the plight of the French peasantry demoralized by the French aristocracy in the years leading up to the revolution, and corresponding brutality demonstrated by the revolutionaries toward the former aristocrats in the early years of the revolution. Interestingly, it follows the lives of several protagonists through these events. Following the lives of several protagonists (most notably Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton), the novel takes the reader on a journey that will stay with them forever. This revised second digital edition has been specially formatted for today's e-readers by Andrews UK, and has many special features, including an easy-to-navigate table of contents.
Sobre l'autor
Charles Dickens, perhaps the best British novelist of the Victorian era, was born in Portsmouth, Hampshire, England on February 7, 1812. His happy early childhood was interrupted when his father was sent to debtors' prison, and young Dickens had to go to work in a factory at age twelve. Later, he took jobs as an office boy and journalist before publishing essays and stories in the 1830s. His first novel, The Pickwick Papers, made him a famous and popular author at the age of twenty-five. Subsequent works were published serially in periodicals and cemented his reputation as a master of colorful characterization, and as a harsh critic of social evils and corrupt institutions. His many books include Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, Bleak House, Great Expectations, Little Dorrit, A Christmas Carol, and A Tale of Two Cities. Dickens married Catherine Hogarth in 1836, and the couple had nine children before separating in 1858 when he began a long affair with Ellen Ternan, a young actress. Despite the scandal, Dickens remained a public figure, appearing often to read his fiction. He died in 1870, leaving his final novel, The Mystery of Edwin Drood, unfinished.
