Happy 200th Birthday Charles Dickens!

Filed under Authors,Books,News

We still read A Christmas Carol & Great Expectations, A Tale of Two Cities & The Adventures of Oliver Twist. Charles Dickens, February 7, 1812 – June 9, 1870, is still one of our most beloved and recognized classic authors. His works are memorable both for the characters he created as well as his depiction  of the society of his time.
