In Londen En Parijs

In Londen en Parijs

by Charles Dickens

In Londen en Parijs (A Tale of Two Cities) is een klassiek werk van Charles Dickens dat zich afspeelt tijdens de tumultueuze Franse Revolutie. Het verhaal volgt de levens van verschillende personages, waaronder de zelfopofferende dokter Manette, zijn dochter Lucie, en de revolutionaire Sydney Carton. De roman verkent thema's als rechtvaardigheid, sociale ongelijkheid, liefde en hoop, terwijl de gruwelen van de revolutie worden uitgebeeld. Door de verweven levens van deze personages te volgen, schetst Dickens een meeslepend portret van een tijdperk dat gekenmerkt werd door sociale en politieke omwentelingen.
