"nicholas nickleby"
"It is our custom, sometimes, to tell sitters what
part we are upon, in order that if there's any
particular expression they want introduced they
may throw it in, at the time, you know".
Miss La Creevy.
John Browdie.
"Nicholas Nickleby" was Dickens's third novel. It was published in monthly parts
between March 1838 and September 1839 and takes as its central theme the
mistreatment of children in notorious boarding schools to which they were sent by
uncaring parents. In spite of its serious subject, this is one of Dickens' funniest works.
