| | 1. |  | Great Expectations (Penguin Classics)
from Penguin Classics
Price: $8.00
Customer Review:
I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in reading a Dickens novel but not sure where to start. I moved around to so many different high schools that I never was "forced" to read any Dickens and somehow also missed this in college. I just finished this book and I have to admit I did not... more info

| | 2. |  | A Tale of Two Cities (Penguin Classics)
from Penguin Classics
Price: $8.00
Customer Review:
Some honest disclosures. My strongest academic credentials relevant to literary criticism are that I minored in English. I have never been a "student" of Dickens. I enjoy Shakespeare plays in the same manner that I enjoy analyzing baseball games: I always get the point and relish in the general... more info

| | 3. |  | Great Expectations (Dover Thrift Editions)
from Dover Publications
Price: $3.50
Customer Review:
This is an excellent coming-of-age book with which many people will be able to relate. I will admit, the beginning was rather grueling, but looking back, I am glad I finished the book. Dickens has a fabulous vocabulary and an excellent sense of people. The characters are dynamic and quite various. I... more info

from Pocket
Price: $4.95
Customer Review:
Some of the notes were helpful but a lot of them were stuff that you should know if you are a high school graduate. The book was pretty good altho the style was hard to get used to. It was very didactic but it got into a little insight into the characters as the book went on. I don't think this was... more info

| | 6. |  | Oliver Twist (Penguin Classics)
from Penguin Classics
Price: $7.00
Customer Review:
Charles Dicken's classic tale of Oliver Twist and the people he comes across is a definite must-read. The poor orphan is one of the most memorable protagonists in English literature. The supporting cast is something worth mentioning, also. The distinctive portrayals of Master Bates, the artful... more info

| | 8. |  | A Tale of Two Cities (Enriched Classics)
from Pocket
Price: $4.95
Customer Review:
By the year 2006, can Dickens' novel A Tale of Two Cities still hold relevance? The answer is a simple yes. It is a great tale of how love, revolution, and chaos can all fall into place at the same moment. But the most interesting topic that he addresses is the theme of rebirth or revolution. This... more info

from St. Martin's Minotaur
Price: $16.47
Customer Review:
Edgar Allan Poe was found lying in a ditch, ill and nearly dead, and was taken to a local Baltimore Hospital where he died. Or did he? Gray, in Not Quite Dead, sets out a series of events that bring Edgar Allan Poe, Charles Dickens, American politics, and publishing in 1849 into a book that is part... more info
