Les Temps difficiles est le dixième roman de Charles Dickens, un court roman paru, non en publications mensuelles comme les précédents, mais en feuilleton hebdomadaire dans sa revue Household Words, du 1er avril au 12 août 1854. Roman social, il est situé dans la ville fictive de Coketown (image de Manchester, le grand centre textile, et de Preston où Dickens a séjourné durant la grève de janvier 1854) et montre les difficultés d'adaptation des deux classes sociales (la bourgeoisie d'affaire et les ouvriers) à la nouvelle économie issue de la révolution industrielle. L'auteur y dépeint avec un réalisme dénonciateur une classe ouvrière asservie, misérable et moutonnière, abrutie par le travail répétitif, livrée aux démagogues professionnels, que domine une bourgeoisie pragmatique et utilitariste, avide de profits et de pouvoir, persuadée de la nature quasi divine de ses droits et forte de la bonne conscience qu'elle puise dans les lois de l'économie de marché, mais dont il analyse les alibis et présente les travers avec une ironie mordante.

It is nearly eight years since this book was first published. I present it, unaltered, in the Cheap Edition; and such of my opinions as it expresses, are quite unaltered too. My readers have opportunities of judging for themselves whether the influences and tendencies which I distrust in America, have any existence not in my imagination. They can examine for themselves whether there has been anything in the public career of that country during these past eight years, or whether there is anything in its present position, at home or abroad, which suggests that those influences and tendencies really do exist. As they find the fact, they will judge me. If they discern any evidences of wrong-going in any direction that I have indicated, they will acknowledge that I had reason in what I wrote. If they discern no such thing, they will consider me altogether mistaken. Prejudiced, I never have been otherwise than in favour of the United States. No visitor can ever have set foot on those shores, with a stronger faith in the Republic than I had, when I landed in America. I purposely abstain from extending these observations to any length. I have nothing to defend, or to explain away. The truth is the truth; and neither childish absurdities, nor unscrupulous contradictions, can make it otherwise. The earth would still move round the sun, though the whole Catholic Church said No. I have many friends in America, and feel a grateful interest in the country. To represent me as viewing it with ill-nature, animosity, or partisanship, is merely to do a very foolish thing, which is always a very easy one; and which I have disregarded for eight years, and could disregard for eighty more.

Four Great Dickens Masterpieces, Condensed For The Modern Reader.

The Trial of William Tinkling BY Charles Dickens

I am no more bound to explain why the English family travelling by this carriage, inside and out, should be starting for Italy on a Sunday morning, of all good days in the week, than I am to assign a reason for all the little men in France being soldiers, and all the big men postilions; which is the invariable rule. But, they had some sort of reason for what they did, I have no doubt.

The story traces the life of David Copperfield from childhood to maturity. David was born in Blunderstone, Suffolk, near Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, England, in 1820, six months after the death of his father. David spends his early years with his mother and their housekeeper, Peggotty. When he is seven years old, his mother re-marries Edward Murdstone. David is given good reason to dislike his stepfather and has similar feelings for Murdstone's sister Jane, who moves into the house soon afterwards. Murdstone attempts to thrash David for falling behind in his studies. David bites him and soon afterwards is sent away to a boarding school, Salem House, with a ruthless headmaster, Mr. Creakle. There he befriends James Steerforth and Tommy Traddles. David returns home for the holidays to learn that his mother has given birth to a baby boy. Shortly after David returns to Salem House, his mother and her baby die, and David returns home immediately. Peggotty marries a man named Mr Barkis. Murdstone sends David to work in a wine merchant in London, of which Murdstone is a joint owner. Copperfield's landlord, Wilkins Micawber, is sent to debtors' prison (the King's Bench Prison) and remains there for several months before being released and moving to Plymouth. No one remains to care for David in London, so he decides to run away.

Rare edition with unique illustrations and elegant classic cream paper. David Copperfield is the tale of a young man's adventures on his journey from an unhappy childhood to his success as a novelist. Among the characters he encounters are his tyrannical stepfather, Mr. Murdstone; his formidable aunt, Betsey Trotwood; the eternally humble yet treacherous Uriah Heep; frivolous, enchanting Dora; and the magnificently impecunious Micawber, one of literature's great comic creations. In David Copperfield-the novel he described as his "favourite child" - Dickens drew revealingly on his own experiences to create one of his most exuberant and enduringly popular works. Includes unique illustrations.

This Compendium brings together the three best-loved Christmas novellas of Charles Dickens. 'A Christmas Carol' is probably the most famous Christmas story of all time, and also one of the best ghost stories ever written...the miser Scrooge is confronted by three ghosts on Christmas Eve, and forced to come to terms with his own spiritual impoverishment. 'The Chimes', another piece with supernatural elements, is a goblin-story about a working-class man who loses his faith in human nature, but is shown a redeeming spirit-vision on New Year's Eve. And 'The Cricket on the Hearth' is a fairy-tale with a difference, the story of a family with a chirping cricket for a guardian angel.
