Marley, prima di tutto, era morto. Niente dubbio su questo. Il registro mortuario portava le firme del prete, del chierico, dell'appaltatore delle pompe funebri e della persona che aveva guidato il mortoro. Scrooge vi aveva apposto la sua: e il nome di Scrooge, su qualunque fogliaccio fosse scritto, valeva tant'oro. Il vecchio Marley era proprio morto per quanto è morto, come diciamo noi, un chiodo di porta. Badiamo! non voglio mica dare ad intendere che io sappia molto bene che cosa ci sia di morto in un chiodo di porta. Per conto mio, sarei stato disposto a pensare che il pezzo più morto di tutta la ferrareccia fosse un chiodo di cataletto.

From the mysterious Druids and noble King Alfred to the notorious Henry VIII and the Glorious Revolution of 1688, Charles Dickens traced his country's history for the benefit of young Victorians. Written with the beloved storyteller's customary panache, this series of historical vignettes reads like a fast-paced novel, rich in anecdotes and colorful stories. Dickens' unsparing, witty, and opinionated perspectives on the great pageant of English history also offer insights into his own political and religious attitudes.This lively narrative was dedicated by the author to his children, in hopes of whetting their appetites for more substantial works of history. The book was included in the curricula of British school children well into the twentieth century, and it remains a treat for all ages. Alice Munro remembered it fondly as "the first glimpse I ever had of history, before I knew what history was ... the whole story has the charm and recklessness and exaggeration of a spellbinding fairy tale".

The Old Curiosity Shop was initially published in a weekly serial, "Master Humphrey's Clock", between 1840 and 1841.

Her grandfather is a benevolent man, yet he hides behind a dark secret; he has been consumed with the habit of gambling; eventually he gambles away his shop to his creditor Daniel Quilp, one of the most heinous of all of Dickens' villains. Nell and her grandfather flee London and, in their pursuit, they encounter a range of characters that are both goodhearted and the embodiment of evil. The Old Curiosity Shop is an insightful tragedy of sorrows that brilliantly paints the range of human intention.

Barnaby Rudge is a historical novel by English author Charles Dickens, published in 1841. His fifth novel, it is largely set against the backdrop of the anti - Catholic Gordon Riots of 1780. Providing a vivid account of London's descent into anarchy and mob rule, the novel is a gripping story of mystery and suspense.

Their greed and selfishness has made him a misanthrope, and when he finds his namesake grandson romancing his ward, the old man's wrath drives young Martin off to America to seek his fortune. Dickens' declared this, his sixth novel, as "immeasurably the best of my stories." The scheming Mr. Pecksniff, the corrupt Mrs. Gamp, the criminal Jonas Chuzzlewit, and other vividly realized characters populate this powerful black comedy, which features a parody of American mores and manners inspired by the author's 1842 visit to the United States. A captivating tale of hypocrisy and redemption, the novel is distinctive among Dickens' work for its combination of antic humor, searing satire, and lively melodrama.
