About this ebook
To Be Read at Dusk is a Short classic victorian ghost story by English Author Charles Dickens. Best read on you own by the crackling fireside by candlelight for an excellent and atmospheric ghost story. Five couriers talking amongst themselves outside a convent on the summit of the Great St Bernard Pass are overheard by the narrator as two of their group's members relate short ghost stories; one of a woman who abandons her husband for a man who had previously appeared in her nightmares, and another of a man who sees an apparition of his brother, and is thereby warned of the latter's death. To Be Read at Dusk (1852) is a short story written by Charles Dickens.
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.
