A review by gilljames
Dickens' Women by Sonia Fraser, Miriam Margolyes

informative reflective slow-paced

3.25

No doubt these two women gave excellent performances and Dickens read out loud is always a treat.  There is a pleasing selection here of the women  Dickens created. Yet I learnt very little from this that I did not already know from a reading of the primary resources and various biographies of the great writer. There is a missed opportunity here; there is room to delve deeper into the women  that surrounded Dickens - bot the ones he created and the one who were part of his own life.
