When The Pickwick Papers first appeared in 1837, Charles Dickens rose to sudden fame as the English speaking public was seized by Pickwick mania. A century and half later, readers continue to enjoy the vigorous humor and heartwarming optimism of Dickens' first great literary achievement. Scofield evokes all the warmth and laughter of the unlikely adventures of the immortal Samuel Pickwick, Esq. , and the other members of the Pickwick Club. Abetted by Pickwick's faithful manservant, Sam Weller, the Pickwickians bumble through hilarious romantic, misadventures and other twists of plot, encountering many delightfully Dickensian characters along the way.
