Sydney Carton is a lawyer who has wasted his abilities and his
life. Now he has to make a difficult choice about what is really
important to him, which could be a matter of life or death. The
French Revolution is running its violent course; lives are ruined
as a new France is created. How did the gentle Doctor Manette and
his daughter Lucie become caught up in France’s struggles? What
is the real identity of the handsome Charles Darnay, who wins
Lucie’s hand in marriage? And why does the shadow of La Bastille
Prison hang over them all? The best of times and the worst of
times. London and Paris. Sydney Carton and Charles Darnay. A story
of contrasts and chaos. Can peace ever be restored in France? Can
it ever be restored in the hearts of the people involved?
