217. Charles Dickens - Little Dorrit


One of the summer plans! Thought I’d take (to Spain) a Dickens that I didn’t know at all, never televised, so no baggage.

Not sure what to make of it. Very long (700 pages), quite well plotted, not excessively sentimental. Maybe one for the Dickens fan club – I can’t really say I had strong pro or anti views.

I think that maybe 700 pages merited something rather more substantial in theme – 'War And Peace' it wasn’t.
