Charles Dickens: Four Complete Novels: Great Expectations, Hard Times, a Christmas Carol, a Tale of Two Cities FROM THE PUBLISHER Four literary classics; 'Great Expectations', 'Hard Times', 'A Christmas Carol', and 'A Tale of Two Cities'. The four books collected here reveal much of Dicken's development as a novelist. His early works lampooned the abuses of society, but with a confidence that they could be overcome with goodwill and common sense. In his later novels he had become a penetrating social critic, analyzing the materialism and greed of his age in long, complicated panoramas that no longer offered solution that depended on a triumph of human nature.
