At the age of 24 Mr. Dickens had achieved fame and nationwide popularity.
His next bock, however, was a complete contrast of Pickwick. Oliver Twist was remarkable foe the appearance of new qualities in his writing revealing his sympathise for the poor, his hatred of social injustice, and his ability of creating a new atmosphere of horror.
