An unforgettable journey into criminal behaviour that takes me back to my own childhood fantasies
Malcolm McLaren
The power of [Dickens] is so amazing, that the reader at once becomes his captive
William Makepeace Thackeray
Dickens is huge - like the sky. Pick any page of Dickens and it's immediately recognizable as him, yet he might be doing social satire, or farce, or horror, or a psychological study of a murderer - or any combination of these
Susannah Clarke
The image of little Oliver Twist victimised by poverty, almost seduced by the specious excitement of crime, and then offered the possibility of a lucrative career in authorship is always compelling
Guardian
We leave him most reluctantly, and so will every reader who has any capacity to see and feel whatsoever is most loveable, hateful, or laughable, in the character of the everyday life about him
Examiner
Dickens has genius to vivify his observation
Spectator
He deals truly with human nature, which never can degrade; he takes up everything, good, bad, or indifferent, which he works up into a rich alluvial deposit.He is natural, and that never can be ridiculous
Quarterly Review
