I'm not a Dickens guy. In grad school I had to take at least one course on the Victorians, so I took The Later Dickens, because that was what there was.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I didn't want to be stuck in Dickens period dramas because then I would never know if I was any good.
I had a kind of Dickensian childhood.
Dickens belongs to the English people.
Taking the humour out of Dickens, it's not Dickens any more.
I love Dickens because it makes me chuckle to myself so. He has taken me to another world and out of so many earthly miseries.
I was brought up on Dickens. I remember reading 'Bleak House' but, coming back to it, I didn't remember much about it apart from a few characters.
I admire Dickens beyond words. He is one of the greatest plotters of all times. Didn't have a clue about women, but he sure could plot.
My neighborhood in South London was very Dickensian.
I'm totally obsessed with Dickens, and 'Great Expectations' was one of the first book's I read when I was still in school in Porthcawl.
I love Dickens. I love the way he sets a scene.
