    Humanizes Dickens "The Inimitable"  - a book Dickens himself would have liked to read
  

*by M***L on Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2020*

This is basically a set of several long essays on Dickens, discussing, in light of what we know now, a hundred and more years and many  generations after he passed away, discussing ...(review continues after long parenthetical)long parenthetical ------  (and, in an interesting detail I had never known before, 47 years after the last human actor in the human drama that swirled around Dickens passed away in 1973 -  that is, the daughter of his good friend  - the daughter of the woman he was said to have been terribly in love with, despite being married to the sweetheart of his youth, and the younger sister of the man who destroyed much of the correspondence of their mother with Dickens)--- discussing Dickens as an energetic person who tried to be charitable and exhausted himself in helping people, while harboring unkindness towards many in his heart;  discussing Dickens as a proud Victorian father who considered his marriage to be a cross; discussing Dickens as one of the only inspired artists of his day who understood Poverty and Want from a personal perspective (the author does not say so, but I think that he is a Christian, he is very interested in what Dickens did and did not do for those who suffer in this world).Five stars, of course - the author is very good at saying what he has to say in an understandable and concise and clear way, and the subject matter is, to me at least, endlessly fascinating.One caveat - I have read all the Dickens novels except the last 2, so I do not know if there are spoilers in this book.  There might be, but even if there are, remember that Dickens, like Shakespeare, and like almost nobody else, created dozens or hundreds of life-like fictional characters, so if you read this book this year and read a novel by Dickens years from now, the information you may have read here will no more decrease your appreciation of a novel of Dickens than, say, knowing that your grandparents ended up moving to Boca Raton in their 80s will ever spoil your appreciation of any story that someone who loved them ever tells you about their youth..

    The inimitable Charles Dickens is profiled in this excellent book on the great novelist!
  

*by C***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2020*

A.N. Wilson is a longtime and prolific British novelists and non fiction author. His new book is on  Charles Dickens (1812-1870) the greatest of the Victorian novelist. Dickens wrote 14 long three decker novels such as The Pickwick Papers, Oliver Twist, The Old Curiosity Shop, Bleak House, David Copperfield and Little Dorrit. His last completed novel was the monumental Our Mutual Friend and he died while completing The Mystery of Edwin Drood.  This work is not a strict biography but is more like a collection of essays on various aspects of Dickens life. What are the mysteries alluded to in the title? Among them:a. The mystery of Dickens harsh childhood and poverty. He was the poorest of the major Victorian novelist.b. The mystery of what compelled him to go on suicidal speaking tours even though his health was bad.c. The mystery of his twelve year love affair with Ellen Ternan  his much younger mistress who may have borne children by him.d. Why did Dickens turn on his wife who had given him ten children?  There are many other interesting aspects to the life of the genius who  is England's greatest author. Dickens had a dual personality with a good and bad side but he came from the people and stood for the individual against mass industrial society.  As someone who has read Dickens all of my life and have a long shelf of full biographies on him I, nevertheless, enjoyed this interesting work on the great author.

    Just the Facts, Please!
  

*by W***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 30, 2020*

This book is full of facts and data about Charles Dickens. As a life-long fan of his novel, A Christmas Carol, as well as the Webmaster of A U.S. Christmas Carol (a.k.a. Dickensian Carol), I was so eager to read and/or listen to this biography that I bought both the Kindle and the Audible versions, and I am already following along for the third time!Although this biography makes the case that Charles Dickens was a far cry from the saint most of us probably assumed he was, being, instead, an abusive, hypocritical philanderer and laudanum addict who despised his whole family - especially his mother, this biography seems to treat Dickens with at least some of the dignity and respect this world-renowned author deserves. He became, in his lifetime, one of the most popular writers in the world, and he remains so 150 years after his death in 1870. Arguably, he "wrote the book on" Christmas.The reason I'm docking this biography one Star is that I find some of it to be subjective drivel, and I find it disconcerting the way the author sporadically injects the first-person point of view and political commentary into this book which is, for the most part, objective statements of facts, in the third person, about this amazing author and the world he altered for at least 150 years, if not forever.
