A Tale of Two Cities is Charles Dickens’s most famous historical novel.

Set in Paris and London at the time of the French Revolution, this is the story of two men, Frenchman, Charles Darnay, and Englishman, Sydney Carton.

We meet revolutionaries and aristocrats, and see the poverty of many in both London and Paris contrasted with the wealth of a few.
