But, of course. Palatine Send a noteboard - 13/06/2011 05:13:20 PM
I am constructing a course on Dickens, and so started wondering what I could expect people to have read. I would therefore be very happy if you could reply even if you haven't read anything.


Remember, safety first--wear a hard hat.

Have you read any Dickens?


Yes.

What have you read?


Tale of Two Cities, Great Expectations, and Oliver Twist.

Have you heard of any (other) Dickens novels?


Yes.

Why have you not read them?


Various reasons including not having time or subject not interesting.

What is your perception of Dickens?


I assume you mean as a writer and not personally. Therefore, I perceive him to be a top-notch writer.

Have you seen any film/series versions of Dickens' novels?


Yes.

Pick one word that you connect with Dickens. What is it?


Justice.
