One of my all time favorite Dickens novels. Set in the final quarter of the 18th Century. Bloody, surprising twists, captivating cast of characters (Jerry Cruncher is one of my favorites next to Madame Lafarge) and a story that is consuming from beginning to the shocking end. I started reading Dickens with this novel and I haven’t stopped.
