Dickens Redressed: The Art of Bleak House and Hard Times

By Alexander Welsh

With Bleak House and Hard Times, Charles Dickens inaugurated a series of novels now known as "later Dickens"-works with a darker mood and more strident satire than his earlier fiction. Though immensely popular, these books are only partly understood, Alexander Welsh contends. In this sequel to his acclaimed From Copyright to Copperfield, Welsh closely examines the two novels and reassesses a crucial stage of Dickens's career.
