Any Dickens book can be summarized in two words: coal and suffering. I was forced to read this weepy piece of high-strung emotional swill in high school. Dickens lacks the punch and rage of Zola’s sweeping “Germinal”. For the best critique of Dickens, read “Against Scenery” by Joris-Karl Huysmans. The high schools of America would be better off trashing their Dickens paperbacks and reading something with real value, like Lewis Carroll or the Marquis De Sade, both masterful storytellers of the ridiculousness of power. Plus both Carroll and Sade are a lot more amusing than the ever-serious monotony of Dickens. Do yourself a favor, steer clear of all persons Dickens books in the bookstore and curl up with a nice volume of Sade.

This book was a total waste of my time. don’t get me incorrect though im a very avid reader but, DAG!! was Dickens intending for his book to be so dull or did it just mistakenly take place. The characters were hard to know and so was the plot. ONe character in particular got on my last nerve: the circus person (can’t remember his name because it was just that unimportant). He talked with a lipse which was hard to read.

Hard Times is a book written in older Brittish convention style. The way this tale was written I could hardly know,because I’am not used to reading the older english version.
A book like this one would be for a name who can definitly read,and know nearly every form of writing. It’s mainly about innocent lives simply being tooken away.This included family tree, adults, and children,knowing at that time age didn’t matter.
If you were one of killer’s victoms ,most likely you would lose your life.That is what made it so hard for many people to calmly contiue on with thier lives’,because they were apprehensive about their safty.Just letting you know, I would not recommend reading this book ,If you’re a name like me who dosn’t know the ancient english version used in this text.
This tale included characters such as Mr.Marmel,the Welp,Mr.Grandgrind,Hart House, Mrs. Pegler and Rachel.
They are all involved in persons particular pressures of life in that city. So if you judge you have the right tools to recieve what “Hard Times” is spouting out to you, I will not hold you back. I say give it a try.
