About this book

Childhood hardship and literary success sit close together in Frank T. Marzials's account of Charles Dickens. Published in 1887, this biography begins by treating education as the whole experience that shapes a person. Family money troubles, work in a blacking business and early employment as a clerk and reporter become part of the story of a novelist's formation. Marzials connects these experiences with Dickens's feeling for children and his attention to everyday life.

The book also weighs the fiction, discussing character, humour and emotional effect alongside the circumstances of composition. Its account of Household Words shows Dickens shaping a periodical through his editorial personality and combining instruction with entertainment. Readers interested in the relationship between a writer's working life and his books will find both a career narrative and a nineteenth-century critic's judgments.
