Read in May, 2008

I've read all of Dickens' novels and several biographies (Peter Ackroyd's is the best), so I wasn't expecting anything new here. Smiley is a fan of David Copperfield and Our Mutual Friend; I'm more partial to Great Expectations, The Pickwick Papers and Hard Times. She may not have closely read Barnaby Rudge...not that I'd blame her that much.
