A TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR
The year is 1851. It''s a time of radical change in Britain, when industrial miracles and artistic innovations rub shoulders with political unrest, poverty and disease. It''s also a turbulent time in the life of Charles Dickens, as he copes with a double bereavement and early signs that his marriage is falling apart. But this year will become the turning point in Dickens''s career, as he embraces his calling as a chronicler of ordinary people''s lives.
The Turning Point transports us into the foggy streets of Dickens''s London, closely following the twists and turns of a year that would come to define him, and forever alter Britain''s relationship with the world.
