Doctor Manette, a prominent French Doctor, must flee Paris in the
midst of the chaos that has ensued in what became known as the
Reign of Terror. Fearing further persecution from his 18 maddening
years of imprisonment in the Bastille of Paris, Doctor Manette
hurriedly leaves France to be with the daughter he's never met.
Opening with the famous lines, "It was the best of times, it was
the worst of times..." Charles Dickens', A Tale of Two Cities is
perhaps one of the most celebrated and popular novels of its time.
Weaving together the narratives of vastly different but equally
profound characters against the backdrop of political revolution
and strife, A Tale of Two Cities is a tale of human perseverance.
Throughout the novel, Charles Dickens is able to portray the
hardships of each social class during the trying times of the
French Revolution in a way that is both profoundly elegant and
heartbreaking at the same time. Becoming known as the perhaps the
epitome of Dickensian writing and style, A Tale of Two Cities
measures the boundaries of human will in the fight for what is
right during a time when that just might cost your life.
