Vol. 2, 1857-1870" by Charles Dickens is a collection of correspondence written during the mid-19th century. This volume compiles a significant selection of Dickens's letters, revealing insights into his personal life, professional endeavors, and the literary and social climate of his time. The letters touch on various subjects, including his family, friendships, theatrical engagements, and reflections on his writing." "At the start of this volume, the letters illustrate Dickens's dynamic and busy life in the late 1850s. He expresses his excitement over acquiring Gad's Hill, a house he had long admired, while also lamenting the loss of his friend Douglas Jerrold. The letters detail his activities, such as organizing memorial entertainments for Jerrold and devoting time to his writing, including completing "Little Dorrit." Dickens shares his observations from his travels, highlights his engagement with other literary figures, and provides glimpses of his affectionate relationships with family members. This opening portion sets the stage for an intimate portrayal of one of literature's giants, providing readers with a compelling perspective on both his personal life and his multifaceted career."
