...As Charles Dickens strode through the dirt and depravity of St. Giles at night, ostensibly formulating his latest best-seller in his head, he could not have failed to witness prostitution at its most sickening. Dozens of shivering, barefoot children could be seen most nights, plucking plaintively at the sleeves of prowling gentlemen and offering up their immature little bodies for the price of a family meal...

At the front of St. Bride's,conversely,the gravestones were serried and well-kept, amid trimmed lawns and neat box hedges - permanent markers to the endless passing of the great and the good. The back-side was a disgrace, reflected Billy, unless, of course, you were a rat or a rat-catcher.For also at the rear, out of sight and mind of respectable Londoners, were the pauper's graves. Paupers were interred on Wednesdays - usually without coffins. The bodies were simply thrown into a burial pit, lightly covered with soil, and then boarded over until the following Wednesday. This perfunctory process was repeated, week upon week, until the pit was full and a new one had to be dug. Billy had discovered that by Thursday nights the rats of St. Bride's were invariably in eager attendance, attracted by the newly broken earth and the renewed stench of putrefaction...

This Christmas novel, set in London in 1843, tells the story of an orphan named Alfy Wickfield, who meets and is befriended by England’s most famous writer, Charles Dickens. Over the course of a few unforgettable weeks, the two unlikely friends, each guarding secrets about the past, set out on a creative journey through the dark streets of the great city that will culminate in the author’s best-loved and most enduring story, A Christmas Carol. As Dickens breathes life into his characters – Ebenezer Scrooge, Bob Cratchit, Tiny Tim and the Spirits of Christmas – and pours his heart into a ghost story that will cement his reputation of all time, his young companion learns the meaning of sacrifice, the price of loyalty and the power of forgiveness.

A vibrant, visceral tale of nineteenth century London which cleverly inter-weaves fact and fiction to expose the joint splendour and sordid nature of the mid-Victorian age.In 'Shadowing Charles Dickens', historical figures like Dickens, Longfellow, and Marx become part of fictional events. Fictional characters - prostitutes, forgers and a homicidal maniac participate in real history. Not for the faint-hearted!

New information on the sources of Charles Dickens' novels, particularly the early Pickwick Papers, Nicholas Nickleby and the unfinished Edwin Drood, resulting from research into the history of William Cundill (1816-1905), son of a prominent unitarian, Baptist minister John Cundill (1784-1826).

Little Dorrit S Shadows written by Brian Rosenberg and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1996 with Literary Criticism categories.
In Little Dorrit's Shadows, Brian Rosenberg explores the specific relations between Dickens's ambivalent or self-contradictory imagination and his creation of character, arguing that contradiction and uncertainty do not merely color Dickens's characterization but account in large part for its distinctiveness and success. Characters that seem initially to be thoroughly knowable prove in the end to be as present and absent, definite and indefinite as shadows. Rosenberg is fully familiar with Dickensian criticism and with commentary on the subject of characterization in general. He concentrates on Dickens's eleventh novel, Little Dorrit, in which doubts and conflicts combine to shape the fictional structure on virtually every level. And because Little Dorrit is founded on contradiction, the contradictory elements in the characterization are granted free rein. Working outward from close analyses of characterization in Little Dorrit to more general considerations of Dickens's other novels, Rosenberg does justice both to the achievement of Little Dorrit and to the ways it resembles and differs from Dickens's fourteen other substantial texts.
