This is perhaps the most well-loved story by Charles Dickens. Dickens asked his readers to ‘have a heart that never gets hard’. As readers follow the life of Oliver Twist, a poor orphaned boy struggling against the dangers of life in 19th-century London, they can empathise with his childhood in a workhouse and his life with a gang of pickpockets. They can also share his relief that there were some good people, ready and willing to rescue a child in need.

Příběh malého sirotka Olivera a jeho putování Londýnem plným chudoby, hladu a zločinů dojímá čtenáře už téměř dvě století. Oliver Twist, vyrůstající v sirotčinci krutého pana Bumbla, se ve svém životě potýká s různými ústrky, až nakonec své trýznitele opustí a zakotví ve zlodějské bandě žida Fagina. Tam jej zlodějskému řemeslu učí obratný a prohnaný Ferina Lišák, při jedné loupežné akci však Olivera zatknou a postaví před soud. Zdá se, že se na Olivera nakonec i obrátí štěstí, když se jej ujme dobrotivý pan Barlow, ale parta zlodějů nenechá Olivera tak snadno odejít a jednoho dne jej jednoduše unesou zpátky k Faginovi. Pak ho čekají další spletité události, související s jeho nejasným a tajemným původem. Ukáže se, že Oliver má pravděpodobně nárok na značné dědictví, je tu však ještě jeho nevlastní bratr Edward Leeford zvaný Monks, který se s Oliverem v žádném případě nehodlá o majetek dělit…

Objevte kouzlo nejoblíbenější vánoční pohádky na světě.Příběh vypráví o starém Ebenezeru Scroogovi, který miluje peníze a nenávidí Vánoce. Vždy sedává sám ve svém velkém a chladném domě a zlostně pozoruje rozsvícená okna okolních domů, kde si lidé v útulném kruhu rodin pochutnávají na štědrovečerní hostině. Scrooge si lehne do postele, ale nedokáže usnout. Vtom ho navštíví tři duchové a jeden po druhém ho berou na poučné cesty, které by tomuhle držgrešli měly otevřít oči. Scrooge zjistí, že nic není takové, jak si dosud myslel. Přehodnotí svůj životní postoj, nebo zůstane nadále plný zloby a nenávisti? Povídka Vánoční koleda vyšla poprvé 19. prosince 1843. První vydání se vyprodalo během několika dní a Londýňané stáli hodiny v nekonečných frontách, jen aby si ji mohli poslechnout v podání samotného Charlese Dickense. Čtenáři přijali nevšední příběh s nadšením a dodnes se tvrdí, že tato kniha ve viktoriánské společnosti znovu probudila zájem o vánoční tradice, včetně koled a posílání svátečních blahopřání. Zároveň ve Spojeném království vyvolala nečekanou vlnu dobročinnosti i mezi bohatými průmyslníky, nechvalně známými jako „loupežní baroni“. Autor původně své dílo zamýšlel jako kritiku kapitalistických vykořisťovatelů, dnes však patří k vánoční klasice. Vánoční koleda inspirovala ke vzniku mnohých divadelních her a animovaných nebo hraných filmů a neustále oslovuje malé i velké čtenáře na celém světě.

Vánoční koleda je povídka o lakomém, chladném, necitelném a mrzoutském obchodníkovi Vydřigrošovi a jeho nápravě poté, co ho navštíví tři duchové o Štědrém večeru.Příběh začíná na Štědrý den, sedm let po smrti Ebenezerova obchodního partnera Vodrala. Během noci se Vydřigrošovi zjeví Vodralův duch a varuje ho, že jeho duše ponese těžká pouta na věčnosti, pokud nezmění své hrabivé způsoby. Předpovídá, že ho budou následovat další tři duchové. Ti Vydřigroše během následující noci skutečně navštíví.První duch, Duch minulých Vánoc, vezme pana Vydřigroše do doby jeho dětství a mládí, což se dotkne lakomcovy něžné stránky. Druhý, Duch současných Vánoc, mu ukáže tři různá místa s cílem vyvolat v obchodníkovi pocit zodpovědnosti. Třetí duch, Duch budoucích Vánoc, mučí Vydřigroše strašnou vizí budoucnosti, jaká ho čeká, pokud se nepoučí a nebude jednat podle toho, co viděl.Kniha byla prvně vydána 19. prosince 1843 s ilustracemi Johna Leeche a setkala se rychle s úspěchem a oslavou kritiků. Příběh byl vnímán jako obžaloba industriálního kapitalismu v 19. století a jako vrácení hodnoty svátkům a veselí ve Velké Británii i v Americe po období pochmurnosti. Vánoční koleda zůstává populární dodnes a byla adaptována ve filmu, opeře a dalších médiích.

Nové vydání jednoho z vrcholných Dickensových románů, považovaného za autorovo formálně nejdokonalejší dílo, vybavené desítkami ilustrací tří nejznámějších anglických ilustrátorů 19. a počátku 20. století, s nimiž je Dickensovo dílo neodmyslitelně spjato. Příběh dvou měst, jehož děj se odehrává v Londýně a v Paříži v době před Velkou francouzskou revolucí a během ní, spatřil světlo světa roku 1859. Původně byl vydáván na pokračování v časopise All the Year Round, jejž založil a řídil sám autor. Na pozadí pohnutých osudů ústředních postav – francouzského emigranta Charlese Darnaye, doktora Manetta, jeho dcery Lucie či úředníka Jarvise Lorryho – podává autor mimořádně působivý a emotivní obraz dramatických revolučních časů, kdy se svévole, násilí, běsnění davů a posléze i teror staly běžnou normou. Titulními dvěma městy, v nichž se příběh odehrává, jsou Paříž a Londýn, přičemž anglický klasik líčí Paříž jako centrum nelidskosti a zvráceného běsnění, zatímco Londýn, i přes své stinné stránky, pro něj zůstává městem rozumu a přetrvávající naděje na normální život. Strhující příběh o odvaze, obětavosti, lásce a odplatě ve stínu gilotiny.
