Charles Dickens. It will tell you about his early, middle,

will show a comparison of his work to his life.

Charles Dickens was born at Landport, in Portsea, on

February 7, 1812. His father was a clerk in the Navy

Pay-Office, and was temporarily on duty in the neighborhood

when Charles was born. His name was John Dickens. He spent

time in prison for debts. But, even when he was free

he lacked the money to support his family. Then, when

Charles was two they moved to London. 1

Just before he started to toddle, he stepped into the glare

of footlights. He never stepped out of it until he died. He

was a good man, as men go in the bewildering world of ours,

brave, transparent, tender-hearted, and honorable. Dickens

was always a little too irritable because he was a little

too happy. Like the over-wrought child in society, he was

splendidly sociable, and in and yet sometimes quarrelsome.

In all the practical relations of his life he was what the

child is at a party, genuinely delighted, deli

His work of Great Expectation is very related with his life.
