Official synopsis Publisher
Without a doubt this is Dickens most insightful book, a social commentary on the inequalities of the poor in wealth and education. The industrial revolution was gathering pace in 1843, with mass migration of people from rural to urban slums. Housing was squalid and poverty rife. Charles Dickens wrote this book in the back drop of this inequality between the rich and poor. Education was for the wealthier and the poor who whose wages were so low resulted in crime.
Dickens payed in part for its publication and it became so successful there where 11 editions and sold out in its first print run. A classic that will truly remain relevant even in todays society.
I HAVE endeavoured in this Ghostly little book, to raise the Ghost of an Idea, which shall not put my readers out of humour with themselves, with each other, with the season, or with me. May it haunt their houses pleasantly, and no one wish to lay it.
Their faithful Friend and Servant, C. D.
December, 1843.
