Product Description
The worship of hearth and home that culminates in the nineteenth century, and which survives in our own lives, is not fully explicable without the pressures that the modern city has brought to bear upon it. Alexander Welsh treats The City of Dickens both as a historical reality and as a metaphor that provides a context for values and purposes expressed by the English novel.
