Synopsis
Dickens had a strong theatrical bias, and was always ready, at the slightest pretext, to throw himself into the staging and performing of a play. The author deals with this actor in Dickens, his youthful appearances in private theatricals, his marvellously successful readings from the novels, his attempts at play-writing, the direct references to the stage in his novels, and their dramatic qualities. ILLUS.
