Dickens’ novels will spike and plummet emotions. In this book, characters were made that annoy, yet add a needed sense of humor (Mrs. Nickleby for example), and there are persons which grate on you- boil your blood, really- but lacking them you wouldn’t adore Mr. Nicholas Nickleby so much.
I was caught by Fantastic Expectations from page one. The opening was more entertaining and it kept up its momentum throughout. This book took me longer to get into, but once I did it was excellent.
One failing was the close of Nicholas’ like life. You read a thick, burly novel like this and grow very attached to the lead character. He falls in like with a name lacking knowing her at all (so YOU don’t know her at all, except that she is pretty) and then in the very end, you do not get to see through Dickens’ words how it plays out between the lovers- you get to imagine that yourself (which is fine, I have an imagination, but I like to see these things in ink and through the eyes of a master of the craft). As a replacement for, the ending focuses on an unlikely romance between two to some extent present but not strong characters in the novel, and you get this “here you go” synopsis of the more prevalent characters’ lives.

Dickens’ ability to write outrageously hilarious scenes consistently leaves me floored (and fangirling!) and /Nicholas Nickleby/ is no exception in this respect. Dickens is also tremendously skilled at rendering poetic, heartbreakingly gorgeous sentimental scenes, and persons also find their place in the plot of /NN/.
This is certainly earlier Dickens – he hasn’t reasonably attained the writing maturity that characterizes what I consider his masterpieces (David Copperfield, Small Dorrit, Bleak House, Fantastic Expectations) but it is nevertheless a wonderful read. Early Dickens is still masterful writing.
My only qualm with the text is a qualm I have with Dickens in all-purpose, his female leads are so featureless. Kate Nickleby is basically another Agnes — too passive and excellent for me to like. The rest of the characters, but, are wonderfully rendered (Newman Noggs! Smike (sob)! and of course, the Squeers!).
The Kindle edition was relatively free of typos (at least, I don’t remember too many of them marring my reading).

There’s nothing so entertaining as reading a Dickensian description of a letter being dropped in shock by its reader, and it then fluttering to the floor.

This is a excellent introduction to Dickens for persons who haven’t yet read any. The plot is appealing, the characters memorable, and the twists and turns are less convoluted than of some of his additional works, such as Tale of Two Cities or Fantastic Expectations. Nicholas is a bit too excellent to be right, but he does have a quick temper that gets the best of him at times. Descriptions of a Yorkshire boarding school are rather grim, but the leader’s comments indicate that it is a honestly accurate representation. This book has it all, excellent guys in tough circumstances, terrible guys of various sorts, social and political commentary, and a like tale or two.
