Charles Dickens (1812-1870) was a prominent English novelist and social critic, celebrated for his vivid storytelling and keen observations of Victorian society. Born on February 7, 1812, in Portsmouth, England, Dickens experienced a difficult childhood marked by financial instability and a stint in a workhouse. These early experiences deeply influenced his writing and social consciousness. Dickens's novels are renowned for their memorable characters, intricate plots, and sharp social commentary.

Dickens's writing is characterized by its rich, descriptive prose and its ability to blend humor with serious social issues. In addition to his novels, Dickens was an active public figure, engaging in various social causes and reform efforts. He was a passionate advocate for children's rights, labor reforms, and improvements to the criminal justice system. Charles Dickens passed away on June 9, 1870, but his legacy endures through his substantial contributions to literature and social reform.
