I wedge mine inbetween my copies of The Pickwick Papers and Bleak House.
That way I always know exactly where it is. Those books don't move too often.

Great Expectations would be vastly improved by a good dose of shagging
Or, indeed, by being consumed and then shat out

Where Dickens was supposed to have written Pickwick Papers
is a chop house near my office.
Nommy chops.

Dickens takes a half decent short story and pads it out by massively over describing everything.
Its painful to read.

I like the series of coincidences that all conspire to leave everything okay in the end.

It's odd, really. Plenty of Victorian authors are perfectly legible.
Dickens seems to go out of his way to be florid. It's how I'd expect a Victorian Dozer to write.
