Charles Dickens: A Few Images

I have collected these images from the internet and have arraged them randomly to give you a literal look at the author who has inspired me every since I was a boy. You can easily come across his biography anywhere so I am refraining from repeating it here. Here are just a few images to set your imagination on fire, as every Dickens novel does.I have not arranged the images in any order so that they all look fresh. The 7th of February, 2012, was celebrated as the 200th birth anniversary of Charles Dickens all over the world. Though writing in the 19th century, his works still hold meaning in the world of today where income disparity, poverty and corruption is as rampant as it was in 19th century Britain. I just hope we learn from his advice even if we are more than a hundred years late.
