Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities - A Routledge Study Guide and Sourcebook

Since its publication in 1859, A Tale of Two Cities has remained the best-known fictional recreation of the French Revolution, and one of Charles Dickens’s most exciting novels. A Tale of Two Cities blends a moving love story with the familiar figures of the Revolution – Bastille prisoners, a starving Parisian mob, and an indolent aristocracy.
