In this captivating literary travelogue, Thomas Frost bravely ventures through the picturesque county of Kent, trailing the footsteps of the great Charles Dickens and his characters. Frost‚Äôs narrative is not only a tribute to Dickens and Kent but is also peppered with fascinating anecdotes about the local towns and villages he explores. He brings to life the last armed uprising on British soil - the Battle of Bossenden Wood, and seamlessly weaves in Dickens original descriptions of locations. Occasionally, he strays into the realms of myths and legends, concocting his own gripping tales. Despite his initial misstep of mixing up Men of Kent and Kentish Men, this unique blend of memoir, short stories, and travelogue keeps you hooked from start to finish.Copyright Biographies and Memoirs アート 世界 文学史・文学批評
