Charles Dickens is the acclaimed definitive biography by bestselling author Claire Tomalin • Charles Dickens was a phenomenon: a demonicly hardworking journalist, the father of ten children, a tireless walker and traveller, a supporter of liberal social causes, but most of all a great novelist - the creator of characters who live immortally in the English imagination: the Artful Dodger, Mr Pickwick, Pip, David Copperfield, Little Nell, Lady Dedlock, and many more • At the age of twelve he was sent to work in a blacking factory by his affectionate but feckless parents.
