#OTD in 1865, #CharlesDickens was in a railroad crash near Staplehurst. Although he escaped injury, the accident affected him greatly for the rest of his life. He died five years to the day after this event.
On 150th anniversary of Charles Dickens, introduce someone to this master of story-telling with #audiobook: A Tale of Two Cities read by Anton Lesser.
Or read #ebook about Dickens' London by @JudithFlanders.

Dickens was also close friends with PUNCH cartoonist John Leech. In Nove,mber 1849 they witnessed a public execution at Horsemonger Lane jail. Dickens wrote to The Times decrying the practice, while PUNCH published Leech's "The Great Moral Lesson at Horsemonger Lane Gaol"
Charles Dickens–who died #OTD 1870–worked intensively on developing arresting names for his characters that would reverberate with associations for his readers, & assist the development of motifs in the storyline, that gave 'allegorical impetus' to his novels' meanings.
@EmilyJLB "Newly emerged evidence showing Batman and Boz together disputes popular theory that Charles is the caped crusader. Coming up next we'll be talking to beard expert Herr Suit who is running extensive comparisons to argue that Dickens *may* be Aquaman..."
Just over an hour to go until we share some of the work from our Dickens MA. Videos and posts will be released sequentially over at https://t.co/iuDKA834Bt and staff and students will be at their keyboards to respond to your comments and questions!
Interesting item on Dickens's original ms. of Oliver Twist in today's papers, pointing out that he toned down the violence in language as well as incident—but it's still so powerful (see Philip Allingham's long essay about the novel & its illustrators: https://t.co/Bobgw7iTgo)

Soft jack is the wind down I needed today(nothing fancy more expressive than usual). So I share the YouTube video for it since twitter compresses files like the dickens
With the 150th anniversary of Dickens's death coming next month, I've put Pictures from Italy to one side temporarily, and am enjoying reimmersing myself in The Mystery of Edwin Drood, especially @alysjones1's awesome illustrations for @Drood_Inquiry
