It's a time of radical change in Britain, when industrial miracles and artistic innovations rub shoulders with political unrest, poverty and disease. It's also a turbulent time in the life of Charles Dickens, as he copes with a double bereavement and early signs that his marriage is falling apart. But this year will become the turning point in Dickens's career, as he embraces his calling as a chronicler of ordinary people's lives. The Turning Point transports us into the foggy streets of Dickens's London, closely following the twists and turns of a year that would come to define him, and forever alter Britain's relationship with the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'Sparklingly informative' Guardian'Wonderfully entertaining' Observer'It is hard to imagine a better book on Dickens' New Statesman\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Robert Douglas-Fairhurst","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64839498334557,"sku":"9781784708337","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1074\/9358\/9341\/files\/9781784708337.jpg?v=1780058983","url":"https:\/\/adventureintobooks.co.uk\/products\/9781784708337","provider":"Adventure Into Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
