Oh boy, I sure am enjoying the Charles Dickens novel I'm reading. I'm definitely not reading it just because I'd be seen as a pleb if I haven't read it. No way, just huge amount of enjoyment!
Dicken's inst patrician. Dude wrote fluffy serial novels for housewives to read in easily digestible installments.

Just read his Nell Trent book. It's not normie. It's literally otaku moe shit.
Did you know that Kafka envied Dickens for his ability to write an engaging story?
"I have been reading about Dickens. Is it so difficult and can an outsider understand that you experience a story within yourself from its beginning, from the distant point up to the approaching locomotives of steel, coal, and steam, and you don’t abandon it even now, but want to be pursued by it and have time for it, therefore are pursued by it and of your own volition run before it wherever it may thrust and wherever you may lure it.
I can’t understand it and can’t believe it. I live only here and there in a small word in whose vowel (‘thrust’ above, for instance) I lose my useless head for a moment. The first and last letters are the beginning and end of my fishlike emotion."
I've recently been reading Dickens for fun
but it's easier to enjoy if you happen to be a Christian and English. I doubt whether all our atheistical Yanks like him much.

I (OP) am a UKer but I'm not Christian.
I think his writing is quite good and he can have a humorous turn of phrase with his narrator voice. I just don't really care about reading pages 101 to 650 of the adventures of Nicholas Nickleby in a clichéd, Dickensian narrative.
Can we stop with the frog pls

A Tale of Two Cities is an ok, entertaining book. The only book worth reading from him IMO.
Dickens is fuckin pleb as hell are you kidding. He wrote serialized realist pulp.
>>7869182
No.
If I read Dickens I'd keep it a secret to be honest.
