Book Synopsis
Dickens's first concern in all his fiction is with people's feelings and their imaginations. This book takes a personal approach to Dickens's art, paying attention to what magnetizes Federico or strikes her as newly relevant to our own world, and to her life, as she explores what Dickens' works are emotionally about.

Trade Review
... an illuminating perspective on the selected texts-a perspective that incidentally sheds light on how Dickens achieves his intimate and powerful impact. * John Edmondson, Independent Researcher, British Association for Victorian Studies *
... I absolutely loved this book; I think very highly of Dickens anyway, and to see his work explored like this was fascinating... If "But for you…" is any indication, the My Reading series is going to be a winner... If you want a personal, thought-provoking and fascinating look at Dickens and the effect he can have on the reader, this is definitely a book for you! * Shiny New Books *
