@Maud

No Maud, it has to be "Tale of two cities", or "Great Expectations". Although Oliver is a classic as well. :D

Oliver Twist

A Tale Of Two Cities

A Christmas Carol
Of those three I would choose A Tale of Two Cities, however The Pickwick Papers and Bleak House are my personal favourites.

I liked a Christmas Carol. I would like to think people can change their ways.
