Sketches by Boz, Illustrative of Every-Day Life and Every-Day People by Dickens

"Sketches by Boz, Illustrative of Every-Day Life and Every-Day People" by Charles Dickens is a collection of short pieces originally published between 1833 and 1836. Dickens's first book captures vivid snapshots of London scenes and people through fifty-six sketches divided into four sections. From pen-portraits of eccentric characters to fictional tales, these early works reveal the sharp observational eye that would define Dickens's career. Published under the mysterious pseudonym "Boz," these pieces launched one of literature's most celebrated voices. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
