How can you rate Dickens, really?,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Our Mutual Friend (Everyman's Library Classics S.) (Hardcover)
Like Shakespeare, it's very hard to compare him to anyone but himself.And this is not his best: uneven, rushed in spots, a few plot pot holes that jar rather badly. But it's not his worse by any means, either: it has an admirable clarity, the social commentary is pointed but not [too] preachy, and each person in the huge cast of characters is wonderfully individual. There are some signs of his degenerating health if you are looking for them, yet the overall effect for me was fresh and funny, a fine English farce as only he could create. |
