A TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR The year is 1851. It\'s a time of radical change in Britain, when industrial miracles and artistic innovations rub shoulders with political unrest, poverty and disease. It\'s also a turbulent time in the life of Charles Dickens, as he copes with a double bereavement and early signs that his marriage is falling apart. But this year will become the turning point in Dickens\'s career, as he embraces his calling as a chronicler of ordinary people\'s lives. The Turning Point transports us into the foggy streets of Dickens\'s London, closely following the twists and turns of a year that would come to define him, and forever alter Britain\'s relationship with the world.\'Sparklingly informative\' Guardian\'Wonderfully entertaining\' Observer\'It is hard to imagine a better book on Dickens\' New Statesman Σελίδες: 368, Διαστάσεις: 12.9x12.9cm
