About Book

Book Description
We commenced our last chapter with the beadle of our parish, because we are deeply sensible of the importance and dignity of his office. We will begin the present, with the clergyman. Our curate is a young gentleman of such prepossessing appearance, and fascinating manners, that within one month after his first appearance in the parish, half the young-lady inhabitants were melancholy with religion, and the other half, desponding with love.

The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature
Title of two series of collected sketches and short tales by Charles Dickens, writing under the pseudonym BOZ. First published in book form in 1836, Sketches contains some 60 pieces that had originally been published in the Monthly Magazine and the Morning Chronicle and other periodicals. Subtitled "Illustrative of Every-Day Life and Every-Day People," Sketches contains Dickens' impressions and graphically described observations of the teeming street life of Victorian London. The critical and commercial success achieved by Sketches was partly a result of the clever illustrations by George Cruikshank, who also illustrated other novels by Dickens.
