![]() ![]() 4,5 estrelas Essa foi minha primeira obra lida de Dickens. O livro me fisgou logo no primeiro parágrafo com uma estranha sensação de “déjà vu”: “Aquele foi o melhor dos tempos, o pior dos tempos, foi a era da sabedoria, da loucura, foi a época da crença, da incredulidade, a era da Luz, das Trevas, a primavera da esperança, o inverno do desespero, tínhamos tudo bem diante dos nossos olhos, não tínhamos nada diante dos nossos olhos, iríamos todos para o Paraíso, todos na direção contrária... enfim, aquela foi uma época tão semelhante à atual que algumas das autoridades mais ruidosas insistiram para que lhe déssemos as boas ou más-vindas, que não fosse ignorada, no grau superlativo de comparação!” A ficção histórica é ambientada antes e durante a Revolução Francesa e me impressionou bastante pela profundidade da escrita, pela riqueza de detalhes e em como Dickens conseguiu capturar o espírito francês, apesar das cenas de selvageria, e me levar a sentir e a viver a França durante a Revolução Francesa. “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times . . .” With these famous words, Charles Dickens plunges the reader into one of history’s most explosive eras—the French Revolution. From the storming of the Bastille to the relentless drop of the guillotine, Dickens vividly captures the terror and upheaval of that tumultuous period. At the center is the novel’s hero, Sydney Carton, a lazy, alcoholic attorney who, inspired by a woman, makes the supreme sacrifice on the bloodstained streets of Paris. One of Dickens’s most exciting novels, A Tale of Two Cities is a stirring classic of love, revenge, and resurrection. I cannot imagine what I would add to what has been written about this book. Suffice it to say that this tale of bravery and sacrifice in the French Revolution is one of the great novels of all time, by one of the great novelists, and it is a story that compels attention, rewards the mind, and thrills the heart. If you haven't read this, please do your self an enormous favor and read it. And if you haven't read any Dickens, I feel both sad and exceedingly glad for you, because you still have that unparalleled experience ahead of you.
