 Dickens's first novel, serialized in 1836 and 1837, is a loosely structured series of comic travelers' tales following Samuel Pickwick and his three friends to various towns around England. The book is renowned for its easy good humor and rich cast of characters, but it is nevertheless not without a touch of Dickens's characteristic social criticism, which would become much more pronounced in his later novels.   less

A wonderful insightful social critique - relevant even today. Beautifully written - I love the characters - especially Sam and Mr Pickwick.

Laugh out loud funny, and of course brilliant character-writing.

A total favorite book. Transported me to another world - cozy and brilliant mid Victorian English countryside antics -  for a summer, long ago. Kept the worn copy in my pocket during art school days in New York. Rode the subways late at night, flourescent headache, reading the tattered Penguin paperback.

Who could ask for more in a character than what emits from the singularly well intentioned and pure countenance of Mr Pickwick, leader of his many admirers within the Pickwick Club. A wonderful book with lots of delicious language to sink one's teeth into.
