Other than A Christmas Carol I have not read a Dickens novel. To start with one of his shorter books I nominate Oliver Twist
By Charles Dickens.Also fancy reading Kestrel For A Knave, the film made me cry.

Ah. Cheers.
I've been off site for a while and seem to have fallen behind on the ones covered already. :/
I might give it a go at some point anyway. It's time to catch up on my reading again!

I read the Stevie Smith book a few years ago and enjoyed it a lot.
Okie doke.....so my new pick is The Red Room by August Strindberg
I checked the bookshelf this time :) so it doesn't seem it's come up before.

I have read The Red and the Black twice and loved it both times.
