“The Old Curiosity Shop's depiction of Victorian England is stark and vivid, though frequently bleak, and evokes a surprising mixture of despair and delight. Regardless of time or place, this curious saga will leave an indelible mark on readers' imaginations long after Nell's story ends.” The Bookish Type blog

“The scene of the old woman waiting across time for her departed young husband will haunt the memory of anyone who has lost a loved one too soon - and explains why, despite the excesses scorned by 20th century modernists, Dickens still lives as an artist even after so many of his more tasteful detractors have faded away.” The Daily Beast

“To read Dickens is to enter a world of magnificent and yet bizarre characters, brilliant prose, remarkable coincidences and a setting that can be felt, touched, tasted and seen. Dickens's work is like a thumbprint. It is unique, one of a kind. Each and every setting is so vivid you feel you are there too. You are in the hands of a master, sit back and enjoy the read.” Peter

"The Old Curiosity Shop is, by turns, absolutely heart-breaking and completely heart-warming. Dickens displays the best and worse of human nature to wonderful effect. The story itself is wonderful, and you really feel for all the characters. There are moments of genuine tension and incredible sadness in the events that occur. My favourite Dickens to date." Melanie
