| Summary | "The Life of Charles Dickens, Vol. I-III, Complete" by John Forster is a biographical work written in the late 19th century. This comprehensive biography chronicles the life of Charles Dickens, focusing particularly on his formative years and the experiences that shaped him as one of the greatest novelists of the era. It captures his childhood, early hardships, and the early influences that would later permeate his literary career. The opening of the biography delves into Dickens's early life, beginning with his birth in 1812 and unfolding his childhood years through vivid recollections of family dynamics and significant events. It discusses his family's struggles, particularly his father's financial difficulties that led to Dickens enduring hardships in his youth, including working in a blacking factory at a tender age. Through personal anecdotes and reflections, the text emphasizes his keen powers of observation and imaginative spirit, which would later flourish in his writing, laying the groundwork for understanding the profound influence of these early experiences on his literary works.
