Letters From Charles Dickens

Most of us are familiar with at least some of Charles Dickens's work. This Victorian author was a literary giant and left us stories like A Christmas Carol and Great Expectations. In this episode of Their Own Words Danny and Ava take a look at Charles's personal correspondence to get a measure of the man behind some of the greatest pieces of literature to come out of the Victorian age. Plus, hear brief excerpts from the Pickwick Papers and Charles's own travel memoir detailing a trip he took to America.
