Charles Dickens

Tuesday 7 February 2012

Charles Dickens was born on February 7, 1812, the son of John and Elizabeth Dickens. A prolific writer, Dickens was also an avid reader and even had, later on in life, an amateur theatre company. If you want a picture of Victorian England don't miss some of his works, such as Oliver Twist, Hard Times or Great Expectations.
