The novel depicts the plight of the French peasantry demoralized by the French aristocracy in the years leading up to the revolution, the corresponding brutality demonstrated by the revolutionaries toward the former aristocrats in the early years of the revolution, and many unflattering social parallels with life in London during the same time period. It follows the lives of several protagonists through these events. The most notable are Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton. Darnay is a former French aristocrat who falls victim to the indiscriminate wrath of the revolution despite his virtuous nature, and Carton is a dissipated English barrister who endeavors to redeem his ill-spent life out of his unrequited love for Darnay's wife.Cover art done by @orangedusk…

Master Humphrey and Mr. Pickwick by Charles Dickens

Master Humphrey and Mr. Pickwick by Charles Dickens

107 0 7

The Pickwick Papers is one of Dickens' most popular novels, but few people know that it does not include everything that Dickens wrote about Mr. Pickwick. In 1840, after the success of Oliver Twist, Dickens started a magazine called Master Humphrey's Clock. Master Humphrey was an old gentleman who kept a bundle of stories in the bottom of his grandfather clock, and would read them out to his friends at their weekly meetings. After a few issues Dickens introduced Mr. Pickwick to the club, and also Sam Weller and his father Tony. Shortly afterward he began to publish The Old Curiosity Shop in the magazine; this soon took over completely and no more was heard of Pickwick. These stories are not included in the standard sets of Dickens' work, and indeed have very rarely been republished. We present them here taken from a copy of the first edition, 1840.…
