A tale of two cities, centred on London then Paris , is well written, Dickens
showing his skill in rooting out deceit and pointing at the evil in the powerful elite.
All told it is a dull and tedious, convoluted, book, one that I am sipping a kind of antidote to, this being Ffyona Campbell,
On foot through Africa.
The selfishness of the author is very apparent; the aim being to show she can traverse lands inhabited by poverty stricken people so Ffyona can get a heap of money and fame.
A good enough read though
