【Quite possibly Dickens' magnum opus】
This is Dickens best novel, the satire is very funny and the Characters are all very interesting.
He occasionaly falls into his normal trap of treating women as shallow air heads.
Besides being the best novel of all-time it is also the hardest.
I normally brezze through Dickens but it took me at least 4 tries to get through the first chapt.
You should definintly not read this if you have never read Dickens before.
And anyone who doesn't cry when Jo dies does not have a soul.*****
The one that sticks out in my mind though is Charles Dickens Bleak House.
Bleak House is one of the best novels I have read in a long time.
Dickens does a good job of keeping you into the story by introducing new characters periodically.
The story line/plot of Bleak House is very interesting and tells the tale of England's high courts.
Bleak house is about this orphan that lives with her aunt and after she dies is sent to a girls school.
While there, Esther became like one of the teachers to the girls.
She then finds out that she is to join Jarndyce at his home.
So Esther is packed up and moved to his home not even knowing who is.
Well to make a long story short not to take away from the story she moves in with him, takes care of his niece and nephew, and then he builds her a house.
The novel alternates between the first person narrative, told by orphan girl Esther, and a third person omniscient narrator.
Honestly, I enjoyed Esther's parts more, but the entire thing was moving and endearing.
Many moments brought me to tears.
The scope of this novel is huge, but each new set of characters seems to introduce us to yet another circle of Inferno.
The quality of the prose is astonishing, and the structure and organization of such masses of material masterly.
Others annoyed and angered me to no end.
Some parts were very humorous. And by the time I got to the end, I realized the value of this wonderful novel, which is beyond words.!!!
