Shadowing Charles Dickens

A vibrant, visceral tale of nineteenth century London which cleverly inter-weaves fact and fiction to expose the joint splendour and sordid nature of the mid-Victorian age. In 'Shadowing Charles Dickens', historical figures like Dickens, Longfellow, and Marx become part of fictional events. Fictional characters - prostitutes, forgers and a homicidal maniac participate in real history. Not for the faint-hearted!
