LA BOTTEGA DELL'ANTIQUARIO - VOLII

by Charles Dickens

Overview

Kit - poichè a questo punto abbiamo la fortuna non solo di aver l'agio di seguire le sue vicende, ma di veder le necessità di queste avventure adattarsi al comodo nostro e alle nostre predilezioni in guisa siffatta da imporci categoricamente di battere il sentiero che desideriamo di prendere - Kit, mentre maturavano i casi svolti negli ultimi quindici capitoli, aveva, pian piano, come il lettore può immaginare, pigliato sempre più dimestichezza col signore e la signora Garland, col signor Abele, col cavallino scozzese, e con Barbara, giungendo, pian piano, a considerarli tutti insieme come suoi cari affezionati amici, e a ritenere come casa propria il villino Abele a Finchley.

About the Author

Charles Dickens (1812-1870) is probably the greatest novelist England has ever produced, the author of such famous books as A Christmas Carol, Hard Times, Great Expectations, David Copperfield, and Oliver Twist. His innate comic genius and shrewd depictions of Victorian life — along with his indelible characters — have made his books beloved by readers the world over. Dickens was born in Landport, Portsea, England and died in Kent after suffering a stroke. The second of eight children of a family continually plagued by debt, the young Dickens came to know hunger, privation, and the horrors of the infamous debtors' prison and the evils of child labor. These unfortunate early life experiences helped shape many of his greatest works.
