Résumé

'A revelation ... as well as being sympathetic to the plight of children, it is hilarious' A. N. WilsonThe hero of Dickens's flamboyantly exuberant novel, Nicholas Nickleby, is left penniless after his father's death and forced to make his own way in the world. His adventures give Dickens the opportunity to portray an extraordinary gallery of rogues and eccentrics: Wackford Squeers, the tyrannical headmaster of Dotheboys Hall; the tragic orphan Smike, rescued by Nicholas; and the gloriously theatrical Mr and Mrs Crummle and their daughter, the 'infant phenomenon'. Nicholas Nickleby is characterized by Dickens's outrage at social injustice, but it also reveals his comic genius at its most unerring.©2020 Pandora's Box (P)2020 Pandora's Box

Auteur

Charles Dickens (auteur)

Né en 1812 et mort en 1870, Charles Dickens est l'un des romanciers anglais les plus populaires dans le monde entier. Issu d'une famille très modeste, Charles Dickens souffre beaucoup de sa condition. Ces difficultés seront la source d'inspiration de la plupart de ses oeuvres, dont les plus connues sont Les aventures de M. Pickwick, David Copperfield et Oliver Twist.
