Throughout his writing career Charles Dickens was a hugely prolific journalist. This volume of his later work is selected from pieces that he wrote after he founded the journal "Household Words" in 1850 up until his death in 1870. Here subjects as varied as his nocturnal walks around London slums, prisons, theatres and Inns of Court, journeys to the continent and his childhood in Kent and London are captured in remarkable pieces such as "Night Walks", "On Strike", "New Year's Day" and "Lying Awake". Aiming to catch the imagination of a public besieged by hack journalism, these writings are an extraordinary blend of public and private, news and recollection, reality and fantastic description.

Those of us who, unconsciously, perhaps, think of Charles Dickens as more a phenomenon than a man may take special delight in hisSelected Journalismfor on every page his sense of himself as a particular man in a particular place and time is apparent in every sentence, and yet that ineffable other thing is there as well, that abiding inexhaustibility, that transcendent mastery of all the richnesses of the English language.
