This stimulating study takes a fresh look at two of Dickens' most widely-studied texts. Part I uses carefully selected short extracts for close textual analysis, while Part II examines the historical and literary contexts and key criticism. The volume is an ideal introductory guide for those who are studying Dickens' novels for the first time.

Nicholas Marsh is Fellow of the English Association and the author of many titles in the 'Analysing Texts' series, of which he is also the General Editor.
