Sketches by Boz<br />

Edited with an Introduction by<br />

Dennis Walder and Original Illustrations by<br />

George Cruikshank<br />

Dickens’s first book, published when<br />

he was twenty-four, Sketches by Boz is<br />

a wonderful miscellany of reportage,<br />

observation, fancy, and fiction—all<br />

centering on the teeming metropolis<br />

of London. With its episodic structure,<br />

improvisational flourishes, comic<br />

invention, and cast of odd and eccentric<br />

characters, it introduces all the elements<br />

characteristic of Dickens’s great novels.<br />

Manette.<br />
