About this audiobook
Charles Dickens' masterful historical novel, set in Paris and London during the French Revolution, combines life-and-death adventure with a moving personal story. Lucie Manette, daughter of a revolutionary hero, and Charles Darnay, an aristocrat sympathetic to the poor, are in love. When vengeful revolutionaries seize Charles, can Lucie's friend, Sydney Carton, save him - and at what cost?
Author
Charles Dickens
Charles Dickens was born in 1812 and grew up in poverty. This experience influenced ‘Oliver Twist’, the second of his fourteen major novels, which first appeared in 1837. When he died in 1870, he was buried in Poets’ Corner in Westminster Abbey as an indication of his huge popularity as a novelist, which endures to this day.
