DICKENS AND CHRISTMAS

Charles Dickens
Charles John Huffam Dickens (1812-70) was born in Portsmouth, in England. He was a writer and English novelist, the most recognized of universal literature. His works include descriptions of people and places, both real and imaginary. His works and stories were very popular during his life and he wrote serial novels.

His life was very hard. His family was very poor and his life changed when his father went to prison because he could not pay his bills. After that, Dickens was sent to work in a factory and he only got six shillings a week. He wrote about his terrible moments in his novel David Copperfield. Then he wrote three more novels: Oliver Twist,Nicholas Nickleby and The Old Curiosity Shop, which were very successful. 

My opinion about the novel: in my opinion the novel is entertaining and I think the main message is that you can make mistakes in your life but you have the opportunity to change.
