Recenzii

Review from previous edition Robert Douglas-Fairhurst has a strong sense of the contradictory forces at work in Mayhew's writing, which he compares successively to a peep show, a collection of dramatic monologues and an early work of sociology...this selection is still as long as a fair-sized novel, with helpful notes and a springy, suggestive introduction that captures the energy and variety of Mayhew's world.
Should be required reading not just for lovers of Dickens, but for anyone who wishes to understand how our nineteenth century truly was.
superb new edition
superb introduction
some of the best descriptive writing in the English language
