Set against the violent upheaval of the French Revolution, Charles Dickens great historical novel A Tale of Two Cities (the most famous and perhaps the most popular of his works) compresses an event of immense complexity to the scale of a family history, with a cast of characters that includes a bloodthirsty ogress and an antihero as believably flawed as any in modern fiction.
Though the least typical of the author’s novels, A Tale of Two Cities still underscores many of his enduring themes: imprisonment, injustice, social anarchy, resurrection, and the renunciation that fosters renewal.
