Charles Dickens was bom on February 7,1812, in Port sea, England. His parents were middle-class, but they suffered financially aş a result of living beyond their means. When Dickens was twelve years old, his family’s dire straits forced hım to quit school and work in a blacking factoiy (where shoe polish was manufactured). Within weeks, his father was put in debtor’s prison, where Dıckens’s mother and siblings eventually joined hım. At this point, Dickens lived on his own and continued to work at the factory for several months. The horrific conditions in the factory haunted hım for the rest of his life, aş did the experience of temporary orphanhood.

Apparently, Dickens never forgot the day when a more senior boy in the warehouse took it upon himself to instruct Dickens in how to do his work more efficiently. For Dickens, that instruction may have represented the fırst step toward his full integration into the misery and tedium of working-class life. The more senior boy’s name was Bob Fagin. Dıckens’s residual resentment of hım reached a fevered pitch ın the characterization of the villain Fagin in Oliver Twist. After inheriting some money, Dıckens’s father got out of prison and Charles returned to school. Aş a young adult, he worked aş a law clerk and later aş a journalist. His experience aş a journalist kept hım in close contact wıth the darker social conditions of the Industrial Revolution, and he grew disillusioned wıth the attempts of lawmakers to alleviate those conditions. A collection of semi-fictional sketches entitled Sketches by Boz earned hım recognition as a writer. Dickens began to make money from his writing when he published his fırst novel, The Pickwick Papers, which was serialized begınnıng in 1836 and published in book form the following year. The Pickwick Papers, published when Dickens was only twenty-five, was hugely popular, and Dickens became a literary celebrity after ıts publication.

In 1836, Dickens married Catherine Hogarth, but after twenty years of marriage and ten chıldren, he fell in love wıth Ellen Tertian, an actress many years his junıor. Soon after, Dickens and his wife separated, ending a long series of marital difficulties. Dickens remained a prolific writer to the end of his life, and his novels-among them Great Expectations, A Tale of Two Cities, A Christmas Carol, David Copperfield (Dickens’ most autobiographical novel), and Bleak House-continued to earn critical and popular acclaim. He died of a stroke in 1870, at the age of 58, leaving The Mystery of Edwin Drood unfinished.
