Resumen del libro
'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times ...'
The famous opening words of Dickens's most exciting and popular novel perfectly captures the essence of the French Revolution. Swept up in the tide of cruelty and bloodshed are Charles Darnay, the innocent victim condemned for the monstrosities of his aristocratic uncle, and Sydney Carton, his mysterious and disreputable double. Linked by their love for the same woman, fate hurls them into the dangers of Paris, where they must fight for their lives against the citizens' thirst for revenge.
