"The Inimitable" Charles Dickens captured the ethos of Victorian England in his writing and was undeniably a celebrated author--indeed a celebrity author--in his own time. With writing that ranged from hilarious caricature to gritty social realism, he managed to effectively blend entertainment with wide-ranging social critique.
