Produktbeschreibung
Charles Dickens (1812-1870) was a famous English author who wrote Oliver Twist and A Christmas Carol. He and his wife Catherine married in 1836, when Charles was 24 and she was 21. From then until the time of their divorce 20 years later, Catherine got pregnant and gave birth to 10 children. It shows that Dickens' own childhood had been painful enough already. At the age of 12, and with his father imprisoned for debt, he had gone to work in a shoe factory, pasting labels on jars of shoe polish for a few necessary shillings each week. His parents had eight children and Charles was the second. Although I don't personally expect my daughter would be a good money maker, which is perfectly fine with me, it seems Dickens had thought differently. Unfortunately, none of his children turned out to be a famous writer like him and he officially lamented that, "having brought up the largest family ever known with the smallest disposition to do anything for themselves." In other words, he had to pay everything for his children until he passed away. It shows that Dickens grew unhappy about his marriage with Catherine, eventually. The record shows that he resented the fact that he had so many children to support; somehow, he saw this as his wife Catherine's fault. He did not approve of Catherine's lack of energy and began to indicate that she was not nor had ever been his intellectual equal. In June 1858, Charles and Catherine filed for divorce, which was rare then, and he started seeing a new woman named Ellen Turnan. >Don't buy this book only because it looks pretty: It can seriously help you financially.
