“Thanks to his works and his career, Dickens has become the most important symbol of London of the 19th century and Victorian society as a whole. His thoughtful melancholy and bright humor reflected two powerful currents of the English attitude, his energy and optimism embodied the progress of that era, and calling for social reforms, he voiced all the trends of his time. So, start your acquaintance with Charles Dickens. ” (Peter Akraid)
“Dickens made a path from serious financial difficulties to significant wealth, from abandonment in childhood to general worship in adulthood, from dubious acquaintances to a private audience with Queen Victoria. His life in itself serves as a model of the Victorian ideal, which consisted in an independent solution to all problems. He was an object of universal adoration in an unprecedented scale for that time. ” (Paul Shlitka)
Inimitable Charles Dickens was a sensitive and pleasant person in communication, completely devoid of arrogance and arrogance, and instantly had people. Paul Shlitka, chairman of the Board of Trustees of the London Museum Charles Dickens, reports to the manner of communication of a talented writer and recreates his portrait as convincingly as if they had spent the evening at an inn for a friendly conversation and a hot fragrant punch.
