The London home of famous English novelist Charles Dickens.
Charles Dickens, who lived from 1812 to 1870, is indisputably the most famous Victorian author.
His writings are powerfully evocative of the Victorian era in which he was writing, making them popular at the time of publication, as well as today.
He wrote over fifteen novels and short stories, including A Tale of Two Cities, Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, Nicholas Nickleby, A Christmas Carol, The Pickwick Papers, Little Dorrit and Great Expectations.
Charles Dickens lived in this house from 1837 to 1839; he finished The Pickwick Papers, wrote Oliver Twist, Nicholas Nickleby and started Barnaby Rudge during this time.
Now, the house serves as a museum which includes Dickens’ writing desk.
The blue plaque can be found at the entrance of the museum. 🔵
