Often considered one of the greatest novels of all time, as well as Dickens's finest, Bleak House is Charles Dickens's classic novel covering classic themes and breaking new ground. Told alternatively in the first person past tense and the third person present tense, the novel is unique even in its structure. Following the fortunes of a young woman, Esther Summerson, whose life rides on the outcome of a valuable court case, the novel introduces a cast of colorful characters and conniving, treacherous knaves.This edition is annotated
Aonia edizioni. Le avventure di Nicholas Nickleby è il terzo romanzo di Charles Dickens, pubblicato originariamente in capitoli sul settimanale edito da Chapman and Hall tra l'aprile del 1838 e l'ottobre del 1839. Il giovane Nicholas Nickleby si trova, in giovane età, a dover sostenere la sua famiglia, dopo la perdita del padre. La famiglia, trasferitasi nella caotica Londra del XIX secolo, cerca appoggio nella figura del fratello del defunto, Ralph Nickleby, che si rivelerà ben presto nella sua natura perfida ed egoistica. Fondendo drammaticità, spunti critici, satira e avventura, Dickens costruisce una trama ricca di fascino, con personaggi psicologicamente intensi e con ambientazioni ricche di particolari di quell'epoca ricca di contrasti che fu l'età vittoriana.
Abounding in colour and humour, and interspersed with unforgettable set pieces, Pictures from Italy is yet another proof of Charles Dickens's genius and versatility. A great addition to Alma Charles Dickens collection of popular novels.
