Vie et aventures de Nicolas Nickleby

by Charles Dickens, Ligaran

Overview

Extrait : "Il y avait une fois, dans un coin du Devonshire, un digne gentleman du nom de Godefroy Nickleby qui avait attendu un peu tard pour se marier. Comme il n'était ni assez jeune ni assez riche pour aspirer à la main d'une héritière, il avait épousé, par pure affection, une vieille inclination. Le revenu de M. Nickleby, au moment de son mariage, flottait entre 1500 et 2000 francs de rente, au plus."

About the Author

Charles Dickens (1812-1870) is probably the greatest novelist England has ever produced, the author of such famous books as A Christmas Carol, Hard Times, Great Expectations, David Copperfield, and Oliver Twist. His innate comic genius and shrewd depictions of Victorian life — along with his indelible characters — have made his books beloved by readers the world over. Dickens was born in Landport, Portsea, England and died in Kent after suffering a stroke. The second of eight children of a family continually plagued by debt, the young Dickens came to know hunger, privation, and the horrors of the infamous debtors' prison and the evils of child labor. These unfortunate early life experiences helped shape many of his greatest works.
