One of the best-selling novels of all time, A Tale of Two Cities is arguably Charles Dickens' best historical fiction stories. It explores the intricacies of a pre-revolution France and the simmering anger that led to the end of a monarchy.
Follow Doctor Manette, newly released from an eighteen-year imprisonment in the infamous Bastille, as he moves away from the tyrannical French monarchy.
"Liberty, Equality, Fraternity, or Death " Walk with Manette through the streets of nineteenth-century London as the anger of the people reached its boiling point. The political tensions are high, they've had enough, and they are not afraid anymore.
This story is one of conflicts, brutality, and of a history-altering revolution. Charles Dickens' best-selling novel is a roller coaster that will carry readers through some of the most tumultuous events in history. Stand in the shoes of the people who lived it and leave with a completely new perspective on what it means to be human.

Notă biografică

Charles John Huffam Dickens (7 February 1812 - 9 June 1870) was an English writer and social critic. He created some of the world's best-known fictional characters and is regarded as the greatest novelist of the Victorian era. His works enjoyed unprecedented popularity during his lifetime, and by the twentieth century critics and scholars had recognised him as a literary genius. His novels and short stories enjoy lasting popularity. Born in Portsmouth, Dickens left school to work in a factory when his father was incarcerated in a debtors' prison. Despite his lack of formal education, he edited a weekly journal for 20 years, wrote 15 novels, five novellas, hundreds of short stories and non-fiction articles, lectured and performed extensively, was an indefatigable letter writer, and campaigned vigorously for children's rights, education, and other social reforms. Dickens was regarded as the literary colossus of his age. His 1843 novella, A Christmas Carol, remains popular and continues to inspire adaptations in every artistic genre. Oliver Twist and Great Expectations are also frequently adapted, and, like many of his novels, evoke images of early Victorian London. His 1859 novel, A Tale of Two Cities, set in London and Paris, is his best-known work of historical fiction.
