Re: But, of course. Camilla Send a noteboard - 14/06/2011 02:42:34 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.


Will do. How about high visibility jackets?

Have you read any Dickens?

Yes.

What have you read?

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


What did you think of them?

Have you heard of any (other) Dickens novels?

Yes.


Which ones?

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.


Which ones? What did you think of them?

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

Justice.
