| Summary | "My Father as I Recall Him" by Mamie Dickens is a memoir written in the late 19th century. This book provides a personal and intimate glimpse into the life of the renowned author Charles Dickens, presented through the memories and reflections of his daughter. The narrative focuses on Dickens' domestic life, his relationships with family, and his character as both a father and a literary genius, portraying him as a loving and attentive family man. At the start of the memoir, Mamie Dickens sets the tone by reflecting on her father's profound impact on her life and memories of their home life at "Gad's Hill." She shares her impressions of Dickens' loving nature, detailing his devotion to his children, his admirable traits like tidiness and punctuality, and his deep appreciation for simple family joys such as Christmas celebrations. The opening chapters paint a vivid portrait of Dickens not just as a literary figure, but as a man whose heart was firmly anchored in his family and home life.
