librator 's review for:
The Pickwick Papers
by Charles Dickens
Quite good. Much more lighthearted than a lot of Dickens' work, downright hilarious at times, and has some great characters - particularly Sam Weller and his father. A bit disjointed, though (as might be expected from something originally published serially), and the mood whipsaws around sometimes, especially when the characters start telling stories of their own. In addition, the ending, like many Dickensian endings, is awfully convenient for all concerned. Still, a good read, and one that takes its place as one of my favorite Dickens books.
