Favorite Dickens' novels are ....
Great Expectations and Bleak House. Least favorite is The Olde Curiosity Shop. Other favorites are David Copperfield, Our Mutual Friend, and A Tale of Two Cities. Many do not like a Tale of Two Cities, but I really like some of the characters: Jerry, by day messenger for Telson's Bank, by night a grave robber; Miss Pross who does in Madame Defarge; and of course the dipsomaniac lawyer, Sidney Carton. I am prejudiced on this novel by the 30s movie: no one has ever played Sidney Carton so well as Ronald Coleman. Some like Pickwick papers the best. While I like this book, it is not really vintage Dickens and, as such, it is different from all the rest.
