Charles Dickens' Bicentenary is coming! What are you doing to celebrate?
Tomorrow, February 7, would have been his 200th birthday! If I wasn't consumed with reading about four non-fiction books at the moment, I'd re-read David Copperfield, which is definitely my favorite of his earlier works.
His under-appreciated works include Bleak House (a MUST READ-- get the Norton Annotated edition if you can) and Hard Times -- but Great Expectations, David Copperfield, and Oliver Twist are probably my favorites. A Tale of Two Cities I read in high school, but didn't enjoy it -- probably because I HAD to read it in high school! I think people resist being forced to read ANYTHING -- plus it's just not his best work.
What there is of The Mystery of Edwin Drood is excellent ... too bad it's unfinished!

David Copperfield is definitely one of his better works, as well as one of my favorites as well. I would probably celebrate by checking out some of his works that I haven't had the pleasure of reading. I own and/or have read A Christmas Carol, Oliver Twist, Nicholas Nickleby, A Tale of Two Cities and Great Expectations. I might even read a couple of them again in honor of his birthday. What other books of his would you suggest?
