Charles Dickens Pictures, Images and Photos
OLA....today I would like to share with you about my new favourite writer of several famous classical story...CHARLES DICKENS.

Charles Dickens is known for his keen observation,vivid imagination and true-to-life charachters.Most of his stories were inspired by real-life incidents and the writer's own past experiences.Most of his stories centred on the poor and the less fortunate- something he could relate to since he came from a modest background himself.

He was born in 1812 in the city of Landport.His father was a clerk in the the Naval Pay Office. In 1824,after his family had moved to London ,Charles father was imprisoned for debt.Charles was sent to work at Warren's blackening factory,an experience that haunted him for the rest of his life.This dark secret of the work at the work at the factory bacame the inspiration for many for many of his later works.
He attended school school and become an office boy for an attorney until 1829,he became a feelance reporter at Doctor's Common Courts.After that,he moved on to be a newspaper reporter and published his first story in the Monthly Magazine.

His father was imprisoned again for debt and turned to him for help.Charles helped him out and faced his family asking money from him frequently throught his life.In 1836,he married Chaterine Hogarth and work began on many books and plays to come,as Charles started a full-time career as a novelist.A year after they had their first son,the first ofTEN CHILDREN!

In 1824,he visited Canada and United States to talk on international copyright and the abolition af slavery.A year later,he wrote A Christmast Carol,which was an enormous success.Many more plays wore written ,then he started public reading of his work and sadly,seperated from his wife.In 1869,he suffered a midle stroke but went on with his readings.A year later , he suffred another stroke and died at Glad's Hill,London.
