| Summary | "The Dickens Country" by Frederic George Kitton is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work dedicates itself to exploring the life and surroundings of the famed author Charles Dickens, using a geographical lens to connect his life experiences and literary works to specific locations across England, particularly the south-eastern parts associated with him. It provides detailed insight into the settings that inspired Dickens's stories and characters, making it an interesting read for literature enthusiasts and fans of Dickens. The opening of the text introduces the concept of mapping Dickens's connections to his surrounding geography, particularly highlighting where he was born and raised, such as Portsmouth and Chatham. It speaks to the young Dickens's formative years and how specific places shaped his literary inspirations, detailing the environments he inhabited and the events he experienced, such as his time spent in humble homes and bustling towns. The importance of these locations and their influence on his works sets the stage for a deeper exploration of Dickens's life throughout the subsequent chapters.
