‘It was the best of times, it was the worst of times..’
The story of Lucie Manette—the daughter of an English doctor, the mystifying Charles Darnay—the nephew of a marquis and the unfathomable Sydney Carton—Darnay’s lawyer, a Tale of Two cities works its way through London and Paris and brings before the reader the most remarkable saga of love, chaos, duality and uprising, all in the backdrop of the French Revolution.
First published in thirty-one weekly installments in 1859, this is Dickens’ best known work of historical fiction.
A Tale of Two Cities is Charles Dickens’s great historical novel, set against the violent upheaval of the French Revolution. The most famous and perhaps the most popular of his works, it compresses an event of immense complexity to the scale of a family history, with a cast of characters that includes a bloodthirsty ogress and an antihero as believably flawed as any in modern fiction. Though the least typical of the author’s novels, A Tale of Two Cities still underscores many of his enduring themes—imprisonment, injustice, social anarchy, resurrection, and the renunciation that fosters renewal.
