Summary

David Timson talks about Charles Dickens, much loved for his great contribution to classic English Literature. Listen to Nicholas Nickleby narrated by David Horovitch.

One of Dickens’ earlier novels, dating from 1839, it charts the fortunes of an honorable young man, Nicholas Nickleby, who has set out to make his way in the world. Dickens presents his remarkably vivid display of Victorian characters and the life they lead, from the generous to the fated to the crushed. Hope springs eternal, however, and righteous persistence brings rewards.

Listen to Nicholas Nickleby by Charles Dickens.
