Bio
Charles Dickens was an English novelist, journalist and social critic whose vivid characters, comic brilliance and moral imagination made him a defining literary voice of the Victorian era. He popularized serial publication with works such as The Pickwick Papers and used instalment fiction and cliffhangers to captivate a mass readership for novels like Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, Bleak House, A Christmas Carol, A Tale of Two Cities and Great Expectations. By combining gripping storytelling with a relentless focus on urban poverty, institutional injustice and the plight of children, his fiction both entertained and helped shape public opinion and social reform. The countless adaptations of his work and the very adjective "Dickensian" testify to his lasting impact on literature and popular culture.
