A Tale of Two Citiesby Charles Dickens Item Number: 1822 Charles Dickens' compelling portrait of the results of terror and treason, love and supreme sacrifice continues to captivate readers around the world. This novel provides a highly-charged examination of human suffering and human sacrifice, private experience and public history, during the French Revolution. When the starving French masses rise in hate to overthrow a corrupt and decadent government, both the guilty and innocent become victims of their frenzied anger. Soon nothing stands in the way of the chilling figure they enlist for their cause - La Guillotine - the new invention for efficiently chopping off heads. (From the Treasured Classics shelf.)
