Three of Charles Dickens' books stand out from the rest among his widely read and cherished works. They are ageless, their characters live on in people's imaginations forever, and they have a clear feeling of the author's personality throughout the text. This deluxe hardbound edition, which depicts the Dickensian world in all its facets, includes Great Expectations, which is a wonderful blend of humour, tragedy, and mystery, as well as the well-known novels Oliver Twist, based on Dickens' childhood, A Christmas Carol, which made Dickens "the man who invented Christmas" and revolutionised how a whole nation celebrated this holiday, and Oliver Twist.
