书籍简介

Everyman's Library Classics：Great Expectations 远大前程（狄更斯）

查尔斯·狄更斯非常引人入胜的小说之一，《远大前程》讲述了孤儿皮普在一位匿名捐助者给他一个过绅士生活的机会后，离开了悲惨和贫困的童年。

从年轻的皮普在墓地的黑暗中与罪犯马格韦契的初次可怕的相遇，到郝薇香小姐的豪宅中精彩的病态场景，再到泰晤士河上华丽的船追逐，《远大前程》充满了狄更斯能够如此丰富地提供的超然兴奋。

这本书写于1860年，正值他的成熟期，它也揭示了这位小说家苦乐参半的理解，即我们深刻的道德困境在多大程度上是由我们自己的执念和幻想产生的。

这个版本包括狄更斯zui初的、被抛弃的小说结论，G. K. Chesterton在1907年写的Everyman序言，以及F. W. Pailthorpe的20幅插图。

One of Charles Dickens's most fascinating novels, Great Expectations follows the orphan Pip as he leaves behind a childhood of misery and poverty after an anonymous benefactor offers him a chance at the life of a gentleman.

From the young Pip's first terrifying encounter with the convict Magwitch in the gloom of a graveyard to the splendidly morbid set pieces in Miss Havisham's mansion to the magnificently realized boat chase down the Thames, Great Expectations is filled with the transcendent excitement that Dickens could so abundantly provide.

Written in 1860, at the height of his maturity, it also reveals the novelist's bittersweet understanding of the extent to which our deepest moral dilemmas are born of our own obsessions and illusions.

This edition includes Dickens's original, discarded conclusion to the novel, the 1907 Everyman preface by G. K. Chesterton, and twenty illustrations by F. W. Pailthorpe.

Everyman's Library Classics：Oliver Twist 雾都孤儿（狄更斯）

本书讲述孤儿奥立弗·退斯特从小在贫民习艺所受尽欺凌，逃到伦敦后又不幸陷入贼窟。身边的世界像一台疯狂运转的机器，小奥立弗却努力坚守着心底深处的纯净与高贵。这份执著终于帮他等来了柳暗花明：布朗劳先生、梅里太太等人及时伸出援助之手；与此同时，奥立弗奇特的身世也一步步真相大白。小说在深入揭示社会弊病的同时，也在英国文学史上留下一连串栩栩如生的人物形象，一百多年来深受读者爱戴。

这个版本重印了G.K.Chesterton的原版常人介绍，并包括George Cruikshank的二十四幅插图。

Oliver is an orphan living on the dangerous London streets with no one but himself to rely on. Fleeing from poverty and hardship, he falls in with a criminal street gang who will not let him go, however hard he tries to escape.

One of the most swiftly moving and unified of Charles Dickens's great novels, Oliver Twist is also famous for its re-creation-through the splendidly realized figures of Fagin, Nancy, the Artful Dodger, and the evil Bill Sikes-of the vast London underworld of pickpockets, thieves, prostitutes, and abandoned children. Victorian critics took Dickens to task for rendering this world in such a compelling, believable way, but readers over the last 150 years have delivered an alternative judgment by making this story of the orphaned Oliver Twist one of its author's most loved works.

This edition reprints the original Everyman's introduction by G. K. Chesterton and includes twenty-four illustrations by George Cruikshank.

Everyman's Library Classics：Hard Times 艰难时世（狄更斯）

"生活中只需要事实"。格拉德林德先生学校的孩子们被严厉地命令扼杀他们的想象力，只注意冷酷无情的现实。格拉德格林德的教育对他自己的孩子汤姆和路易莎的影响特别深远，使他们没有能力处理人类内心不可预测的欲望。幸运的是，他们有一个朋友，就是马戏团小丑的孩子Sissy Jupe，尽管周围的压力很大，但她仍然保持着热心肠、有同情心的天性。

到1854年《艰难岁月》出版时，查尔斯-狄更斯作为作家的巨大进步已经包含了对英国社会的多面性、连贯性的看法，包括它的现状和他所希望的样子。艰难时世》是狄更斯式的经典救赎故事，故事发生在一个受工业主义困扰的英格兰北部城镇，它处处受益于这一愿景--它的讽刺意味浓厚，它对社会不公的愤慨之情溢于言表，它的作者用持久的人性来活跃他大和小的事件。

"Facts alone are wanted in life." The children at Mr. Gradgrind's school are sternly ordered to stifle their imaginations and pay attention only to cold, hard reality. The effects of Gradgrind's teaching on his own children, Tom and Louisa, are particularly profound and leave them ill-equipped to deal with the unpredictable desires of the human heart. Luckily for them, they have a friend in Sissy Jupe, the child of a circus clown, who retains her warm-hearted, compassionate nature despite the pressures around her.

By 1854, when Hard Times was published, Charles Dickens' magisterial progress as a writer had come to incorporate a many-sided, coherent vision of English society, both as it was and as he wished it to be. Hard Times, a classic Dickensian story of redemption set in a North of England town beset by industrialism, everywhere benefits from this vision - in the trenchancy of its satire, in its sweeping indignation at social injustice, and in the persistent humanity with which its author enlivens his largest and smallest incidents.

Everyman's Library Classics：David Copperfield 大卫·科波菲尔（狄更斯）

大卫·科波菲尔逃离了他童年的残酷家庭，开始了他的成人之旅，这将带领他经历喜剧和悲剧、爱情和心碎、友谊和背叛。在他的冒险过程中，大卫遇到了一系列古怪的人物，在他后来发现真正的幸福之前，他学到了关于这个世界的艰难教训。查尔斯·狄更斯知名的小说和作者自己相对较爱的，《大卫·科波菲尔》是关于一个男孩在一个神奇、恐惧和严峻的现实世界中成长的经典描述。在这本部分是童话、部分是薄薄的自传的书中，狄更斯将他的生活经历转化为一系列精彩的滑稽和感伤的冒险，体现了他非常欣赏的18世纪伟大小说家的精神。很少有读者会不被戴维的命运所触动，更少有读者会不为他的故事而感到高兴。残忍的默德斯通、无能的米考伯、不善言辞和阴险的乌利亚·希普，以及大卫·科波菲尔本人，狄更斯将自己早年的生活写进了他的肖像，构成了我们文学遗产的核心部分。

Perfield escapes from the cruelty of his childhood home, he embarks on a journey to adulthood which will lead him through comedy and tragedy, love and heartbreak and friendship and betrayal. Over the course of his adventure, David meets an array of eccentric characters and learns hard lessons about the world before he finally discovers true happiness.Charles Dickenss most celebrated novel and the authors own favorite, David Copperfield is the classic account of a boy growing up in a world that is by turns magical, fearful, and grimly realistic. In a book that is part fairy tale and part thinly veiled autobiography, Dickens transmutes his life experience into a brilliant series of comic and sentimental adventures in the spirit of the great eighteenth-century novelists he so much admired. Few readers can fail to be touched by Davids fate, and fewer still to be delighted by his story. The cruel Murdstone, the feckless Micawber, the unctuous and sinister Uriah Heep, and David Copperfield himself, into whose portrait Dickens puts so much of his own early life, form a central part of our literary legacy.This edition reprints the original Everyman preface by G. K. Chesterton and includes thirty-nine illustrations by Phiz.

Everyman's Library Classics：A Christmas Carol and Other Christmas Books 圣诞颂歌及其他圣诞作品（狄更斯）

Everyman's Library查尔斯·狄更斯作品集的zui后一卷:每个人喜欢的厌世者埃比尼泽·斯克罗吉的永恒故事，还有四本狄更斯的圣诞故事和阿瑟·拉克姆的经典插图。

没有吝啬鬼斯克罗吉先生的故事，没有他那长期忍受痛苦、温文尔雅的职员鲍勃·克拉奇蒂的故事，没有鲍勃善良的瘸子小蒂姆的故事，没有圣诞节过去、现在和未来的幽灵的故事，假日季节是不完整的。

《圣诞颂歌》于1843年初次出版，1852年与另外四个圣诞故事一起再版——《钟声》、《壁炉前的蟋蟀》、《生命之战》和《闹鬼的人》。这些受人喜爱的故事复活了圣诞节“精神”的概念，并一直保持至今。

The final volume in the Everyman's Library Charles Dickens collection: the timeless story of everyone's favorite misanthrope, Ebenezer Scrooge, together with four more of Dickens's Christmas tales and with Arthur Rackham's classic illustrations.

No holiday season is complete without the story of tightfisted Mr. Scrooge, of his long-suffering and mild-mannered clerk, Bob Cratchit, of Bob's kindhearted lame son, Tiny Tim, and of the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future.

First published in 1843, A Christmas Carol was republished in 1852 in a new edition with four other Christmas stories--The Chimes, The Cricket on the Hearth, The Battle of Life, and The Haunted Man. These beloved tales revived the notion of the Christmas "spirit"--and have kept it alive ever since.
