Summary "The Letters of Charles Dickens. Vol. 3, 1836-1870" by Charles Dickens is a collection of personal letters and correspondence written during the early to mid-19th century. This volume captures a significant period in Dickens's life, providing insights into his thoughts, creative process, and relationships. The letters reveal not only his literary endeavors but also his personal experiences and reflections, offering readers a unique glimpse into one of the most celebrated authors of the Victorian era. The opening of this volume features letters addressed to various friends and associates, including Mr. John Hullah and Mr. George Hogarth. In these early letters, Dickens expresses his musings on the reception of his works, the challenges of writing, and his experiences as a public figure. He humorously conveys his reactions to criticism, discusses his collaborations on theatrical productions, and shares personal reflections on life and loss. Notably, he mentions a deep connection to his late sister-in-law Mary Hogarth, underscoring how her memory influences his thoughts during this period. Overall, the beginning establishes a tone of candidness and wit that characterizes Dickens's writing, inviting readers to engage with his world through the lens of his correspondence.
