Peter Clark

Few novelists have written so intimately of a city as Charles Dickens wrote of London, England. In the first half of this book, Peter Clark illuminates the settings of Dickens's London scenes as they feature in his novels. Outside London, Kent meant more to Dickens than any other part of Britain. The county pervades his first works of fiction and his favorite novel, David Copperfield. In his last ten years he wrote two novels with strong Kentish themes- Great Expectations and The Mystery of Edwin Drood. This book takes the reader to the places Dickens knew and imaginatively wove into the tapestry of his stories.
