Enthralling radio dramatisations of eight of Charles Dickens' much-loved novels. Charles Dickens is one of the most renowned authors of all time, and this second digital volume of the dramatised canon of his work includes eight of his classic novels. This collection includes the epic masterpiece David Copperfield, described by Dickens as his 'favourite child'; suspenseful mystery Bleak House; Dickens' most openly political novel, Hard Times; and Little Dorrit.

Good dramatization, but hard to follow unless you've already read the books.
Reviewed: 05-09-20
I enjoyed listening, but there are a few problems. 1-It's very hard to search and find a particular story. The table of contents lists chapters, but doesn't tell you where each book begins or which books are in this compilation. In addition, if you click on the chapter it doesn't take you to a different place. For books that I haven't yet read, It is very hard to follow the storyline and keep track of the characters.
