What Members Thought
Though I had this marked as read, I'm 99% sure I've never read this before. That said, I love Dickens because his characters are at once over-the-top and yet believable. And while he can get maudlin by today's tastes, just check out the obvious psychotic "break" the freed French prisoner has about midway through this book, I just like Dickens. Becuase under all that syrupy Victorian artifice rests a true moral vision adroitly argued.
