Re: Have you read anything by Charles Dickens? ClubCaved Send a noteboard - 14/06/2011 05:45:06 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.

Have you read any Dickens?


Yes.

What have you read?


Most of them once; the ones I re-read constantly are: Our Mutual Friend, Christmas Carol; Mystery of Edwin Drood (How dare the author die before finishing it.)

Have you heard of any (other) Dickens novels?

Why have you not read them?

What is your perception of Dickens?

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


Tale of Two Cities (with Ronald Colman) once; Christmas Carol many times

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