After finishing A Tale of Two Cities, Dickens said “it has greatly moved and excited me in the doing.” One of his most haunting novels, it has, since its first serial publication in 1859, continued to exert a grip on the popular imagination. Set during the French revolution in a lethal, vengeful Paris and a leafy, tranquil London, the two cities of the title are only a part of the novel’s stark dichotomies, which are continued as Sydney Carton and Charles Darnay—their lives touched by the same woman—are drawn against their will to the vengeful, bloodstained streets of Paris only to fall under the lethal shadow of La Guillotine.

About the Author
Charles Dickens (1812-1870), one of the grand masters of Victorian literature, was the second of eight children of a family continually plagued by debt. As a young adult, he worked as an attorney’s clerk and newspaper reporter until his Sketches by Boz and The Pickwick Papers brought him instant success as a serial writer. Some of his best-loved works include David Copperfield, Great Expectations, Oliver Twist, and A Christmas Carol.
