Sketches by Boz

by Charles Dickens
Category: "Fiction - General"
Pages:486
Year of Publication:1836
Date Read:09/07/1997
Notes:A rich and strange mixture of reportage, observation, fancy and fiction centred on the metropolis. It was Dickens's first book, published when he was twenty-four, and in it we find him walking the London streets, in theatres, pawnshops, lawcourts, prisons, along the Thames and on the omnibus, missing nothing, recording and transforming urban and suburban life into new terrain for literature.
My Rating: 6
