Item Description
Charles by Victoria Lincoln HCDJ Charles Dickens 1962
Here is a copy of CHARLES: A Novel Inspired by Certain Events in the
Life of Mr. Charles Dickens. Written by Victoria Lincoln. This book
presents a memorable picture of society in London, before and during the
reign of Queen Victoria ~ society in its broadest sense, ranging from
the squalor of debtors' prison to the flamboyant, florid lives of the
moneyed classes. Charles Dickens is the center of this historic novel,
unmistakably a genius, with the underlying current of his tragic
personal life; his futile love for the selfish Maria; his later marriage
to Kate who did not understand her husband or his writing; and the
constant burden of his father, who always lived beyond his means. Most
poignant of relationships is Dickens' with Mary, Kate's sister, the only
person to understand Dickens' wit and writing. The two were
inseparable friends, almost lovers, but honored Dickens' marriage vows
to Kate. Copyright 1962 by the author. Published by Little, Brown and
Company; Boston and Toronto. Book Club Edition. This is a hard cover
book with dust jacket. 5 3/4" x 8 1/4". 405 pages.
