21. Reading

22. Charles Dickens was an English novelist and one of the most popular writers in the history of literature. Dickens was born on February 7, 1828, in Portsmouth and spent most of his childhood in London and Kent, both of which appear frequently in his novels. He started school at the age of nine, but his education was interrupted when his father, a friendly but careless minor civil servant, was put into prison for debt in 1824.

23. The boy was then forced to support himself by working in a shoe-polish factory, and he later described this experience, only slightly changed, in his novel David Copperfield (1849-1850). From 1824 to 1826, Dickens again attended school. For the most part, however, he was self-educated.

24. Among his favorite books were those by such great 18th century novelists as Henry Fielding and Tobias Smollett, and their influence can be discerned in Dickens’own novels. In 1827 Dickens took a job as a legal clerk. After learning shorthand, he began working as a reporter in the courts and Parliament. Perhaps developing the power of precise description was to make his creative writing so remarkable.
