  • Beschreibung: In 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 19th century and the indelible impact it had on Dickens' work.
