A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Charles Dickens, whose pen name was Boz, is regarded by many as one of the world`s greatest authors. His father, a navy clerk, was - like the fathers in many of Dickens` novels - constantly in and out of debtor`s prison, and Dickens was sent to work in a blacking factory at the age of twelve. His parents` failure to educate him was a source of great bitterness to him, and he reacted to this indifference by working incredibly hard for his entire life. Beginning as an office boy in a lawyer`s office, in time he became a parliamentary reporter and then a journalist. He wrote The Pickwick Papers at the age of twenty-four, and captured the popular imagination in a way no other novelist had done previously. He continued writing and reading his works in public until his sudden death in 1870.
