Olá, meu nome é Finn e vou ajudar você a entender este livro.

Aqui está, explicado como se você tivesse 10 anos:

Ninguém conheceu Dickens melhor que John Forster. Eles se conheceram jovens, e por mais de trinta anos Dickens lhe contou tudo, mostrou-lhe cada plano e confiou-lhe os segredos, incluindo a infância na fábrica de graxa que escondeu do mundo. Depois que Dickens morreu em 1870, Forster escreveu esta grande biografia a partir das cartas e de sua própria memória. É longa, amorosa e insubstituível.
