Overview

Read one of the greatest classics of all time.

The definitive edition.

  • Features an extended biography of the life and experiences of Charles Dickens
  • Large Print editions available in hardback and paperback

One of the best-selling novels of all time, A Tale of Two Cities is arguably Charles Dickens' best historical fiction stories. It explores the intricacies of a pre-revolution France and the simmering anger that led to the end of a monarchy.

Follow Doctor Manette, newly released from an eighteen-year imprisonment in the infamous Bastille, as he moves away from the tyrannical French monarchy.

"Liberty, Equality, Fraternity, or Death!"

Walk with Manette through the streets of nineteenth-century London as the anger of the people reached its boiling point. The political tensions are high, they've had enough, and they are not afraid anymore.

This story is one of conflicts, brutality, and of a history-altering revolution. Charles Dickens' best-selling novel is a roller coaster that will carry readers through some of the most tumultuous events in history. Stand in the shoes of the people who lived it and leave with a completely new perspective on what it means to be human.

About the Author

About The Author
Charles Dickens (1812-1870) is probably the greatest novelist England has ever produced, the author of such famous books as A Christmas Carol, Hard Times, Great Expectations, David Copperfield, and Oliver Twist. His innate comic genius and shrewd depictions of Victorian life — along with his indelible characters — have made his books beloved by readers the world over. Dickens was born in Landport, Portsea, England and died in Kent after suffering a stroke. The second of eight children of a family continually plagued by debt, the young Dickens came to know hunger, privation, and the horrors of the infamous debtors' prison and the evils of child labor. These unfortunate early life experiences helped shape many of his greatest works.
