A Christmas Carol and Other Christmas Writings
Part of Penguin's beautiful hardback Clothbound Classics series, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design. After reading Christmas Carol, the notoriously reculsive Thomas Carlyle was "seized with a perfect convulsion of hospitality" and threw not one but two Christmas dinner parties. The impact of the story may not always have been so dramatic but, along with Dickens other Christmas writings, it has had a lasting and significant influence upon our ideas about the Christmas spirit, and about the season as a time for celebration, charity, and memory.

Bleak House
Part of Penguin's beautiful hardback Clothbound Classics series, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design. As the interminable case of Jarndyce and Jarndyce grinds its way through the Court of Chancery, it draws together a disparate group of people: Ada and Richard Clare, whose inheritance is gradually being devoured by legal costs; Esther Summerson, a ward of court, whose parentage is a source of deepening mystery; the menacing lawyer Tulkinghorn; the determined sleuth Inspector Bucket; and even Jo, the destitute little crossing-sweeper. A savage, but often comic, indictment of a society that is rotten to the core, Bleak House is one of Dickens's most ambitious novels, with a range that extends from the drawing rooms of the aristocracy to the poorest of London slums.

Oliver Twist
Part of Penguin's beautiful hardback Clothbound Classics series, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design. The story of the orphan Oliver, who runs away from the workhouse only to be taken in by a den of thieves, shocked readers when it was first published. Dickens's tale of childhood innocence beset by evil depicts the dark criminal underworld of a London peopled by vivid and memorable characters - the arch-villain Fagin, the artful Dodger, the menacing Bill Sikes and the prostitute Nancy. Combining elements of Gothic Romance, the Newgate Novel and popular melodrama, Dickens created an entirely new kind of fiction, scathing in its indictment of a cruel society, and pervaded by an unforgettable sense of threat and mystery.

Dombey & figlio
Pubblicato a puntate mensili tra ottobre 1846 e aprile 1848, Dombey & Figlio rappresenta una svolta nella produzione dickensiana: è il primo romanzo dell'autore concepito come un'opera unitaria e organicamente pianificata fin dall'inizio. Il romanzo esplora temi attuali: l'avidità, l'orgoglio, le relazioni disfunzionali, il ruolo delle donne nella società, la critica al capitalismo e il potere corrosivo del denaro. Attraverso una galleria di personaggi memorabili, Dickens costruisce un affresco sociale di straordinaria profondità che precorre i grandi capolavori della maturità come David Copperfield e Bleak House. Paul Dombey, ricco mercante londinese, desidera un erede maschio per perpetuare il nome della sua ditta. Quando nasce il tanto atteso figlio, la madre muore, lasciando anche Florence, la figlia che il padre disprezza. Il piccolo Paul, fragile e malaticcio, muore a sei anni distruggendo le speranze paterne. Determinato ad avere un nuovo erede, Dombey sposa l'indomita Edith Granger. Il matrimonio diventa una battaglia di orgoglio, complicata dalle macchinazioni del subdolo James Carker, direttore della ditta. In questo capolavoro di critica sociale, Dickens dipinge un affresco della società vittoriana, narrando la caduta e la redenzione di un uomo che deve imparare che l'amore vale più del denaro.
