Old Curiosity Shop by Charles Dickens
This is a book I recently added to my Dickens collection.
The Old Curiosity Shop was first published in 88 weekly installments in Dickens’ serial, Master Humphrey’s Clock, from April 1840 to February 1841 and tells the story of thirteen-year-old Nell Trent and her grandfather who live in a small antique gift store know as The Old Curiosity Shop.
This is a must-read for Dickens fans. It is worth noting the significance and criticism surrounding this book in which the young protagonist dies.
