Plot Summary

Charles Dickens grew up in a family where his father was larger than life. The elder Dickens is a teller of tales and always seems to have ambitions that are well beyond his means or his capabilities. He is also constantly in debt and, at more than one point in his life, finds himself in debtor's prison, forcing Charles to leave school at the age of 12 and work. Charles finds success in his writing and marries, his wife Kate bearing them many children despite her delicate mental state. He has a touch of his father in him, however, particularly when it comes to money. He is of course remembered as one of the great writers of the 19th century. Written by garykmcd
