Description

It’s sad that there are so many preconceived ideas about YA novels, ideas that show those who speak about them, very often haven’t read any. True realism given via vivid descriptions while Charles was strolling around the city, combined with some socioeconomic comments of how life "ought to be" instead. Essays charting Dickens's experiences walking through the city of London - recording characters, observing industry, noting hypocrisies and humorous scenes as he passes through.

Each word, in my most humble but assertive opinion, was a stroke, which upon putting them all together reveals this brilliant and elegant masterpiece. This collection deserves to be much more widely read, particularly by fans of this genius of literature. Especially interesting if you know the City of London, which, though much changed by modern building, has not changed much in atmosphere at night. Remzi Kitabevi'nde Penguin Books'un Great Ideas Serisi kitapları arasında görüp almıştım Night Walks'u.The author of these articles, is a man, who anyone upon reading his work, would agree is one everyone wishes was in actuality acquainted with. His 1859 novel, A Tale of Two Cities, set in London and Paris, is his best-known work of historical fiction. I was never too tempted to read more Dickens after Great Expectations and A Christmas Carol but this has put me in the mood.

Son 25 libros aunque yo sólo poseo tres: "El gran inquisidor" de Fiódor Dostoievski, "Días de lectura" de Marcel Proust y este de Dickens. In 1833 he began contributing stories to newspapers and magazines, and in 1836 started the serial publication of Pickwick Papers. Reading this book will make to revisit the challenges in the 21st century, where one out of eight people live in slums globally (UN-HABITAT 2003 Report) and one-fifth of the population go to bed without having food in fast-growing (developing) countries like India (IFPRI).

A collection of Dickens' early short stories based on his famous night walks, some of which span a distance of 20-30 miles in a single walk.
