Beschreibung
"A fascinating family and social history," Catherine Taylor, author of The Stirrings: A Memoir in Northern Time. As a child, Charles Dickens was forced to work in a mouldering Thames-side blacking factory, an event that scarred him for life and inspired Oliver Twist. Except that's only part of the story. In reality, it was Robert Blincoe's workhouse memoir that inspired this classic novel of childhood. In Oliver Twist & Me. , his great-great-great-grandson Nicholas Blincoe traces the arc of Robert's tragic yet ultimately redemptive life story and reveals Dickens - and his world - as they have never been seen before. "A fascinating dual story," Edel Coffey, The Gloss. "These journeys are recorded with self-deprecating humour and warmth. engrossing" Times Literary Supplement.
