Every now and then, disillusioned by modern literature, I return to Dickens. I have just read "Our Mutual Friend" Dickens wonderful word pictures of people, every character vivid and believable is far beyond anyone writing today.

A lovely twenty volume collection of the collected works of Charles Dickens. This folio was produced for mass consumption, so cheaper paper was used. The pages are now extremely brittle.

Otherwise ... It's Charles Dickens. ( )
