Author Biography

After a childhood blighted by poverty, commercial success came early to Charles Dickens (1812-1870). By the age of 24, he was an international sensation whose new novels were eagerly anticipated. Two centuries later, Dickens' popularity endures as readers revel in the warm humanity and rollicking humor of his tales of self-discovery.
