Sheltering from a summer downpour, you
encounter the ghost of Charles Dickens. Join him for a chat in the inn beloved
by Mr Pickwick and be swept away by his vigour, warmth and humanity. You’ll
feel as if you’ve known him all your life.
The great novelist Charles Dickens
attracted international adulation on an unprecedented scale. He cultivated a
genial intimacy with his readers, and after he died many of his admirers felt
that they had lost a personal friend. Sit back and listen to this master
conversationalist talk about everything from work in a boot-polish factory to
lecture tours in America.
Who could possibly ask for more?
