The Life and Adventures Of Nicholas Nickleby 


by Charles Dickens (1812-70) 


The action takes place in London, with 
excursions to Devon, Yorkshire, and 
Portsmouth, as we follow the adventures 
of the eponymous hero. Nicholas is 
forced to unwelcome employment to help 
secure support for his widowed mother 
and his sister from their mercenary 
relative Ralph, on whose mercy they have 
been thrown. After many adventures 
Nicholas finally triumphs over his Uncle, 
although his success is also tinged with 
sadness. The book contains many 
memorable characters: the Yorkshire schoolmaster Wackford Squeers, the 
traveling thespian Vincent Crummles, the poor drudge Smike, the clerk 
Newman Noggs, and the wonderful and generous Brothers Cheeryble.
