'Liberty, equality, fraternity, or death; - the last, much the easiest to bestow, O Guillotine!'
After eighteen years as a political prisoner in the Bastille the aging Dr Manette is finally released and reunited with his daughter in England. There two very different men, Charles Darnay, an exiled French aristocrat, and Sydney Carton, a disreputable but brilliant English lawyer, become enmeshed through their love for Lucie Manette. From the tranquil lanes of London, they are all drawn against their will to the vengeful, bloodstained streets of Paris at the height of the Reign of Terror and soon fall under the lethal shadow of La Guillotine.
Charles Dickens (1812-1870) es uno de los grandes narradores ingleses de todos los tiempos. Entre sus obras más conocidas se cuentan "Tiempos difíciles", "Grandes esperanzas", "Oliver Twist", "David Copperfield", "La tienda de antigüedades", "Historia de dos ciudades" y "Canción de Navidad", todas ellas publicadas en Alianza Editorial además de sus "Cuentos de miedo".
