Charles Dickens's Networks: Public Transport and the Novel
Grossman, Jonathan H. (Associate Professor, UCLA)
The same week in February 1836 that Charles Dickens was hired to write his first novel, The Pickwick Papers, the first railway line in London opened. Charles Dickens's Networks explores the rise of the global, high-speed passenger transport network in the nineteenth century and the indelible impact it made on Dickens's work.
