Not sure, I haven't read that much by him. GREAT EXPECTATIONS in high school, which I really liked, and a mystery story I found in an anthology devoted to Victorian Detective stories. I'm leaning toward some nonfiction like SKETCHES BY BOZ or AMERICAN NOTES FOR GENERAL CIRCULATION. I also found my copy of TALES OF TWO CITIES which sort of started tugging at the pocket my reading glasses were in.:)

Haven't read her but I do have CHILDWOLD which I always meant to get to.
