Critic reviews

"With a cast of characters that covers the whole spectrum of London life, Dickens weaves a tapestry of tales that are by turn funny, moving and tragic." (School Library Journal)
"The fact that Dickens is always thought of as a caricaturist, although he was constantly trying to be something else, is perhaps the surest mark of his genius." (George Orwell)

Most relevant

It's a pity that nobody at the time of writing suggested to Dickens that he edit this novel. For though a well conceived story, it is overwritten.
David Timson makes a great job of narration.
