Descrição do Produto
''Sets out the London of the 1830s before you, streets, people, pleasures, low life, prisons'' Claire Tomalin
Charles Dickens''s first published book, Sketches by Boz is a funny and touching collection of observation, fancy and fiction showing the London he knew in all its complexity - its streets, theatres, inns, pawnshops, law courts, prisons and, of course, the river Thames. His descriptions of everyday life and people seem to anticipate characters from his great novels - garrulous matrons, vulgar young clerks, Scrooge-like bachelors - while his powers of social critique shine in his unflinching depictions of the city''s forgotten citizens, from child workers to prostitutes. This edition includes the original illustrations by George Cruikshank.
Edited with an Introduction and Notes by Dennis Walder
