In this unforgettable classic, Dickens challenges us to consider the nature of revolution, the price of freedom, and the lengths one would go for love.Viking Classics annotated editions always and grammar are carefully edited, improved, and considered to preserve the original manuscript and provide a seamless reading experience.Beautiful, hand-designed cover for eBook, paperback, and hardcovers.Makes an excellent gift for children, teens, and adults.
