[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For Great Expectations -- partly because Nicholas Nickleby is very funny, and partly because the themes and characters in Nicholas Nickleby are less complex. (And partly because I don't like Great Expectations very much, whereas I like Nicholas Nickleby a lot!) For A Tale of Two Cities -- because it's tendentious, all of the characters are cardboard, and there are far better books by Dickens (including Great Expectations).[/quote] I really liked Tale of Two Cities when I read it as a kid. Great Expectations has a lot of layers but no one is likable not even Pip. (His brother-in-law is but he's hardly in the story.) I read it, but I didn't enjoy it.[/quote]
