«Ghost Stories» is Charles Dickens's collection of ghost stories, published by Collector's Library in hardcover (384 pages, in English).
Dickens popularized the Victorian ghost story and the tradition of the Christmas tale of terror. This collection brings together twenty of his supernatural tales, including the five from The Pickwick Papers and the novella «The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain», with his characteristic blend of irony and moral observation.
Complete and unabridged edition, with illustrations and an afterword by David Stuart Davies.
For lovers of classic horror, gothic tales and Victorian narrative; also a good gateway into Dickens's work.
Charles John Huffam Dickens was an English writer and journalist. He created some of literature's best-known fictional characters, and is regarded by many as the greatest novelist of the Victorian era. His works enjoyed unprecedented popularity during his lifetime and, by the 20th century, critics and scholars had recognised him as a literary genius. His novels and short stories are widely read today.
