Charles Dickens (1812-1870) leefde het grootste deel van zijn leven in Londen. Hij had al veel korte verhalen gepubliceerd toen hij beroemd werd met The Posthumus Papers of the Pickwick Club, dat eerst als feuilleton verscheen. Daarna volgden onder meer Oliver Twist, A Tale of Two Cities en David Copperfield. Hij is beroemd geworden vanwege zijn zogenaamde Dickensiaanse karakters en om zijn zorgvuldige intriges en expressieve stijl.
