Dickens's historical novel of the French Revolution, in a gorgeous new clothbound edition
After eighteen years as a political prisoner in the Bastille the aging Dr Manette is finally released and reunited with his daughter in England. There two very different men, Charles Darnay, an exiled French aristocrat, and Sydney Carton, a disreputable but brilliant English lawyer, become enmeshed through their love for Lucie Manette. From the tranquil lanes of London, they are all drawn against their will to the vengeful, bloodstained streets of Paris at the height of the Reign of Terror and soon fall under the lethal shadow of La Guillotine.
Charles Dickens (1812-70) was a political reporter and journalist whose popularity was established by the phenomenally successful Pickwick Papers (1836-7). His novels captured and held the public imagination over a period of more than thirty years. Richard Maxwell teaches in the Comparative Literature & English departments at Yale.

评分“我听说你给释放了,埃弗瑞蒙德公民。我原先希望是真的。” “是真的。不过,我又给抓了回来,还被判了死刑。” “要是我和你同坐一辆车的话,埃弗瑞蒙德公民,你能让我握着你的手吗?我并不害怕,不过我又小又弱。握着你的手能给我增加勇气。” 她抬起那双善于忍受的大眼睛,...
评分《双城记》开篇这段话似乎已经被引滥了。“那是最昌明的时世,那是最衰微的时世;那是睿智开化的岁月,那是混沌蒙昧的岁月;那是信仰笃诚的年代,那是疑云重重的年代;那是阳光灿烂的季节,那是长夜晦暗的季节;那是欣欣向荣的春天,那是死气沉沉的冬天;我们眼前无所不有,我...
