What is the most popular book written by Charles Dickens?

Great Expectations is one of the most popular books by Charles Dickens. It is the Cinderella story in reverse. Instead of a young lady, the story features a young boy who has been orphaned but falls into the household of Ms. Havisham. The elderly lady was abandoned by her suitor when she was young and has lived her life in seclusion. With the addition of Pip, he begins to leave the ways of the street behind and learn to become a proper gentleman. A fascinating rags to riches story.

While this book is popular among teenagers to adults in their mid-forties, after that the book that becomes the next most popular work would be, A Tale Of Two Cities. This book resonates again with a younger crowd but also captures readers who have been around a little longer. The depressing backdrop of this book is set in the time of terror, the French Revolution. This event had far-reaching effects, and while a bit darker than Great Expectations, still captures and stirs the reader’s emotions.
