İki Şehrin Hikayesi

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the age of faith, it was the age of unbelief, it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair; everything was before us, there was nothing before us; Either we were all going directly to heaven or vice versa... In short, the era was so similar to the current era that the leaders of the era insisted on making comparisons between "good" and "bad" only in degrees of superiority.

Dickens dragged his readers, who began to follow him, after the Pickwick Papers, which he wrote at the age of 24, in pursuit of wit, subtle humour, sarcasm, and the bitter taste and tastes hidden in the details of the human soul; Characters such as Mr. Micawbers, Samuel Weller, Pecksniff or Mrs. Todgers; He introduced Scrooges, the unforgettable miser of A Christmas Carol, the prototype of grumpiness and ruthlessness, into the lives of his readers. His depressing, depressing novels such as Hard Times (1854) or Little Dorrit (1857) were not what was expected from him. Dickens was in a pathetic situation in the mid-fifties. His readers abandoned him just when he should have been competing with such greats as Thackeray and George Eliot. He had to make a brand new breakthrough, and the name of this innovation was a historical novel: The Tale of Two Cities...
