A Tale of Two Cities
by Charles Dickens (1812-1870)
A
Tale of Two Cities (1859) is a novel by Charles Dickens,
set in London and Paris before and during the French
Revolution. With well over 200 million copies sold, it
is among the most famous works of fiction.
The novel depicts the plight of the French peasantry
demoralized by the French aristocracy in the years
leading up to the revolution, the corresponding
brutality demonstrated by the revolutionaries toward the
former aristocrats in the early years of the revolution,
and many unflattering social parallels with life in
London during the same time period. It follows the lives
of several protagonists through these events. The most
notable are Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton. Darnay is
a French once-aristocrat who falls victim to the
indiscriminate wrath of the revolution despite his
virtuous nature, and Carton is a dissipated British
barrister who endeavours to redeem his ill-spent life
out of his unrequited love for Darnay's wife, Lucie
Manette.
