About Charles Dickens

Charles Dickens is one of the most beloved English authors in history. His works, including classics such as Oliver Twist, A Christmas Carol, A Tale of Two Cities, and Great Expectations, are renowned worldwide. Born in 1812, Dickens had a difficult childhood; his father was sent to the debtor's prison when he was 12. As a result, Dickens' early education was interrupted, and he had to take on various jobs to support his family. This hardship inspired many of his writings which have become timelessly popular with readers from all walks of life. Throughout his career, Dickens wrote 15 novels translated into more than 50 languages worldwide and adapted for stage performance, films, and television series.
