Excerpt: 'Some persons hold,' he pursued, still hesitating, 'that there is a wisdom of the Head, and that there is a wisdom of the Heart. I have not supposed so; but, as I have said, I mistrust myself now. I have supposed the head to be all-sufficient. It may not be all-sufficient; how can I venture this morning to say it is!

Synopsis Charles Dickens is one of the most renowned authors from the 19th century. His novels are known for their engaging and descriptive prose, as well as their scathing social commentary. One of his most famous novels, Hard Times, takes a critical look at the industrial age in England and its negative impact on the working class. The novel is written in a stark and unyielding style which perfectly reflects the bleak setting of northern England during the era. Despite being published over 100 years ago, Hard Times is still relevant today due to its depiction of socio-economic inequality. Dickens was a master of literature, and Hard Times is a prime example of his talent. An established literary classic, an unmissable read.
