A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens

5.0

I have two absolute favorites that I have read over and over (close to 7 times now). "A Tale of Two Cities" would be one of these books. This novel is set during the French Revolution and takes place in both France and England. At first glance it is a historic novel or a love-story, but upon further inspection, one shall see that this deeply gripping novel is an exploration of the darkest and most horrible emotions and actions of humanity. It is a tale of two cities, but it is more a tale of two sides of the human psyche... one beautiful the other hideous beyond belief.
