Review # 1 was written on 2011-11-17 00:00:00 Donald Peck "The Life and Adventure of Nicholas Nickleby" is like I expect a Dickens to be. A widow with two children gone poor, a villainous and ruthless uncle and schoolteacher, poor abused boys, angel-like ladies, chivalrous young men, misery, poverty, abuse... and a fairytale-like ending. I loved it, as I loved "Oliver Twist", "Great Expectations" and "Martin Chuzzlewit", but curiously enough I have to reads books like this in autumn or winter.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-07-30 00:00:00 Drema Dodrill An early novel with little of the autobiographical content of later epics. We have a noble hero, challenged by adversity, monstrous villains to be opposed, lovely but vulnerable heroines and a host of sympathetic characters to provide relief from the high drama. There is pathos at it's most raw and comedy, too. Dickens' love of the theatre is explored in the company of the Crummles, a family of travelling players to whom Nicholas turns for support and escape from the Yorkshire headmaster, Squeers whose cruelty and exploitation became a symbol of Dickens' campaign against a historical evil. |
