Memorable authors that endure the test of time have character and an individual style. Charles Dickens’ style was writing his characters in extreme. A character is either approaching sainthood or rivaling with the monsters of nightmares. Either bloating with the affluence of wealth or deprived of even the basics. His characters either bring bliss and elation where they walk or burn all those they meet with dread and wretchedness.
The pages of Charles Dickens’ The Christmas Carol was plague by an ancient and heartless man named Scrooge. Scrooge was so outlandishly immoral he cringed at the joyous times brought by Christmas and even shunned his only nephew. Scrooge is inpatient and malevolent. When two men come to his office asking for a donation to the poor he preaches that the poor should be in workhouses or prisons. Scrooge is so exorbitantly offensive so his redemption can be even more stupefying.
In Tale of Two Cities, another famous work of Charles Dickens, there is another character so vile and detested. Madame Defarge is a ruthless killer and could rival any villain. A powerful force in the French Revolution she knits the names of the condemned traitors. Once a name is in her register, the Guillotine is ensured. These characters are outrageously selfish and bigoted, yet without them Charles Dickens charming characters could not prove just how charitable and noble they really are.
Bob Cratchit is the father of Tiny Tim, the pathetic pitiful little boy who walks with a limp and has a perpetual hallo floating round his head. Bob Cratchit is the generous father that works under the dictator-like boss, Mr. Scrooge. He suffers daily for the benefit of his family. Charles Dicken’s writes Bob Cratchit as such an incomparable person so it can show just what a miserable soul Mr. Scrooge is.
Charles Dicken’s is a writer that has influence even now a hundred years after his death. The reason Charles Dicken’s is so celebrated is because of his exaggerated characters. Charles Dickens can put readers into a trance and engross them completely. If the characters were any less than what they are the story would suffer and his novels would not have the dominance they seem to have over other literature.
