Stephen Jarvis: Death and Mr. Pickwick (2015)

Review of 'Death and Mr. Pickwick' on 'Storygraph'

This book captivated me.

I feel like I understand the world and other people a little better now having read it.

If any of this applies to you, I recommend you read this book:

- You've enjoyed a book by Charles Dickens
- You're interested in what life was like around 1800 to 1850
- You're interested in the use of images with writing
- You're curious about how something becomes popular culture or goes "viral"
- You like good writing

Did you know that the Pickwick Papers was the most popular work of English fiction for about a hundred years? I didn't. And it turns out that there are fascinating stories behind it.
