Excerpt: ... difference; or it may be that it was often called the Royal, for short. The popular Duke of the name had no doubt lent his patronage. Queen's Square, once so exclusive, has now hotels and boardinghouses. Boz, by the way, never mentions the two Parades. Yet they must have been in high vogue in his time (1837), just as they were lively enough years before in Jane Austen's. While enumerating the sequence of fashionable routine, he ignores this part of the exhibition. No one of our time has ever seen North and South Parades to their full advantage. Mr. Pickwick and his party, with the Dowlers, remained only a day or two at the White Hart, and then, we are told, shifted their quarters to private lodgings in the Crescent. The reason, Boz tells us, was that they contemplated a stay of a couple of months in the gay city. This seems a fairly good cause, but I fancy Boz had something else in his mind, and this was to bring about Winkle's ignominious midnight adventure, which would have been impossible at a hostelry like the White Hart There the exciting chase could not have ' come off' at all. Nothing could have been more natural, as it turned out, under the comparative solitude of the Crescent --the sleeping inhabitants, the long expanse just suited for flight and pursuit, and, indeed, the general propriety of the whole scene. It is odd that Tupman, the stout gallant, the squire of dames, should have made no show whatever in a scene so eminently suited to his taste and capacity. We never hear of him except during the morning call of Dowler and the M.C., when he was introduced formally to the latter. Yet he does nothing, cuts no figure whatever, is never heard of. We must suppose the man was crushed by his late adventure with the spinster aunt....

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Charles Dickens's life is a truly remarkable rags-to-riches tale. His father's bankruptcy and imprisonment led to Dickens working in a blacking factory at an early age. These humble beginnings were to become a major influence upon his life and his writings. Dickens became a sensation in his own time and his legacy lives on. His books sold in tens of thousands. Audiences flocked to see him when he performed public readings of his works, inciting "Bozmania." Venues became sold out, touts sold tickets at inflated prices, and women fainted at his thrilling recitals. He went on to conquer America and commanded great fees for his performances. This long overdue republication, from 1902, chronologically records the events in the life of the "Inimitable Boz." We discover that he was not just an author but also an actor, publisher, journalist, editor, public reader, art critic, political economist and social reformer. We learn about the characters in his books; who inspired them and uncover something of the personality of Dickens himself. He was a meticulous workaholic with a desire not to be poor again and it was this desire that ultimately killed him. About the author Frederic George Kitton (1856-1904) was born in Norwich, England. At the age of seventeen he moved to London and joined the staff of The Graphic as an apprentice. He became a skilled etcher and contributed to artistic journals before becoming an author. Kitton was one of the founders of the Dickens Fellowship and most of his publications relate to the life and works of Charles Dickens including "Dickensiana: A Bibliography of the Literature Relating to Charles Dickens and His Writings" as well as annotating the "Rochester" edition of "Dickens's Works."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Plutarch Award for Best Biography A lively and insightful biographical celebration of the imaginative genius of Charles Dickens, published in commemoration of the 150th anniversary of his death. Charles Dickens was a superb public performer, a great orator and one of the most famous of the Eminent Victorians. Slight of build, with a frenzied, hyper-energetic personality, Dickens looked much older than his fifty-eight years when he died—an occasion marked by a crowded funeral at Westminster Abbey, despite his waking wishes for a small affair. Experiencing the worst and best of life during the Victorian Age, Dickens was not merely the conduit through whom some of the most beloved characters in literature came into the world. He was one of them. Filled with the twists, pathos, and unusual characters that sprang from this novelist’s extraordinary imagination, The Mystery of Charles Dickens looks back from the legendary writer’s death to recall the key events in his life. In doing so, he seeks to understand Dickens’ creative genius and enduring popularity. Following his life from cradle to grave, it becomes clear that Dickens’s fiction drew from his life—a fact he acknowledged. Like Oliver Twist, Dickens suffered a wretched childhood, then grew up to become not only a respectable gentleman but an artist of prodigious popularity. Dickens knew firsthand the poverty and pain his characters endured, including the scandal of a failed marriage. Going beyond standard narrative biography, A. N. Wilson brilliantly revisits the wellspring of Dickens’s vast and wild imagination, to reveal at long last why his novels captured the hearts of nineteenth century readers—and why they continue to resonate today. The Mystery of Charles Dickens is illustrated with 30 black-and-white images.
