The Old Curiosity Shop
One of Dickens's most haunting and bizarre novels, The Old Curiosity Shop is the story of "Little Nell" and her persecution by the grotesque and lecherous Quilp. It is a shifting kaleidoscope of events and characters as the story reaches its tragic climax, an ending that famously devastated the novel's earliest readers. Dickens blends naturalistic and allegorical styles to encompass both the actual blight of Victorian industrialization and textual echoes of Bunyan, the Romantic poets, Shakespeare, pantomine, and Jacobean tragedy. This edition uses the Clarendon text, the definitive edition of the novels of Charles Dickens, and includes the original illustrations.

Kis Dorrit
A börtön komor árnyéka ad különös, tragikomikus hátteret annak a hatalmas, nagyívű, sok figurát megmozgató, több szálon futó és izgalmas fordulatokban bővelkedő regénynek, amelyben Dickens kora társadalmának szinte teljes keresztmetszetét adja.
A fin
om lélekrajzzal ábrázolt számos szereplő közül kiemelkedik Amy Dorrit "kicsi, félénken-csendes alakja". Sorsa már születésekor eldőlt, hiszen az adósok börtönében látta meg a napvilágot. Apja évtizedek óta él itt, és Amy az, aki felnőve nemcsak róla,
de testvéreiről is odaadóan gondoskodik. Egy napon találkozik a jómódú Arthur Clennammel, aki családjának titka után nyomozva arra a következtetésre jut, hogy az valamiképpen a Dorrit család tragédiájával áll összefüggésben. Mindent megtesz, hogy a
titokra fényt derítsen, és addig is segítsen Amyn, akinek áldozatossága, nemessége és jósága elbűvöli őt. A bebörtönözöttség - a valóságos és képletes rabság - meghatározó elem a történetben a későbbiek során is. Kit bűnei, kit titkai, kit érzelmei,
kit valós rácsok tartanak fogva. A komorságot azonban kiválóan oldja a szerző cinikus humora, a briliáns párbeszédek, nyelvi bravúrok és a beszédes névválasztás.
Ahogyan a cselekmény bonyolódik, a hétköznapi figurák története példázatszerűvé emelkedi
k, és kirajzolódik egy üzenet egyetemes kötelességünkről: embernek, jónak, tisztának és igaznak maradni - és szeretni - minden körülmények között.

Lacná kniha Oliver Twist (-86%)
"Oliver Twist" (1838) is one of the best loved and darkest of Dickens' novels and presents some of the most memorable of Dickens' great characters, from the rascal antics of street urchin the Artful Dodger, the manipulative seediness of Fagin and the
threatening brutality of Bill Sykes, to the kindness of prostitute Nancy and the innocence of Oliver, who escapes the horrors of the workhouse where he dares to ask for more, only to find himself taken in by a den of thieves in London's underworld.
"Oliver Twist" is Dickens' first social tract and a significant development in his growth as a writer keen to appeal to the widest audience while discussing the most serious of subjects. Shocking for its time, it is a masterful expose of the inadequa
cy of the British Poor Laws and the evils that corrupted the childhood innocence in Victorian society...Based on the world-famous "Nonesuch Press" edition of 1937, the text is taken from the 1867 Chapman and Hall edition, which became known as the Ch
arles Dickens edition, and was the last edition to be corrected by the author himself. "The Nonesuch" edition contains illustrations selected by Dickens himself, by artists including Hablot Knight Browne ('Phiz'), George Cruikshank, John Leech, Rober
t Seymour and George Cattermole. The new "Nonesuch Dickens" reproduces the original elegance of these beautiful editions. Books are printed on natural cream shade high quality stock, are quarter bound in bonded leather with cloth sides, include a rib
bon marker and feature special printed endpapers. Each book is wrapped in a protective, clear acetate jacket.
