Until we look at the times, were all both perpetually bored and having an endless blast... 😆

What the Dickens? Our Mutual Friend (my favourite book ever) - YouTube. Haven’t watched this video yet, but saving for later. Our Mutual Friend is easily my favourite Dickens novel, and one of my absolute all time favourite novels ever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKIG2UPlflU #Dickens #CharlesDickens #Literature #VictorianLiterature #Fiction #Novels #Books #Reading #Bookstodon #Booktube #FavouriteBooks #FavoriteBooks #NineteenthCentury

Here is #Dickens sounding like he could have written this yesterday:

"Surely there never was such fragile china-ware as that of which the millers of Coketown were made....They were ruined, when they were required to send labouring children to school; they were ruined when inspectors were appointed to look into their works; they were ruined, when such inspectors considered it doubtful whether they were quite justified in chopping people up with their machinery; they were utterly undone, when it was hinted that perhaps they need not always make quite so much smoke."

Kudos to #CharlesDickens for contriving a way to expand a small story he had previously published. The note preceding The Portrait Painters Story explains this ballsy #writer move. Also pictured, the first page of the shorter tale in Four Ghost Stories, and the cover of The Complete Ghost Stories of Charles Dickens, edited by Peter Haning in which both stories appear.

'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times' was what #Dickens came up with on a Sunday, thinking of Mondays.

Rather stunned earlier today at the passage I read in #LittleDorrit, where #Dickens takes a pointed and extended jibe at #British #xenophobia and #racism against foreigners. I’ll have to gather some more thoughts about this, and will probably blog about it in the coming days. It felt so timeless, and so Brexity. Dickens is hardly blameless in racist attitudes. His oft #antisemitism is notable. But oh, this was on point. #Brexit #Novels #VictorianLiterature #Literature #CharlesDickens #Britain

Very much an “I see what you did there, Barbara Kingsolver” moment at this point in “Demon Copperhead”.

I saw this Dickensian urchin of a juvenile robin in a local park yesterday. E was beeping plaintively and hopping after the adults who kept moving away from em to forage.

Little Oliver Twist here either needs to get better at finding eir own lunch or start working on eir tenor, as apparently eir "Please, sir, I want some more" only melts my heart.

TIL, thanks to reading Dickens' David Copperfield, that the past participle of the verb, 'chide', used to be 'chid'. And now I want to bring it back!

"She gently chid me for being rude"
