描述
"Студеният дом", публикуван между 1852 и 1853 г., е считан за може би най-добрия роман на Дикенс. Той ни отвежда в Лондон през 1850 г., в богаташкия квартал Холборн, на север от река Темза и ни разкрива части от живота на Лейди Дедлок. Жълтата мъгла, която покрива Лондон по това време, сякаш поглъща героите и ни пренася в една епоха, заплетена в интригите и тайните на висшето общество.

I decided to read this having watched Dickensian on the BBC as I wanted to find out more about the Barbery sisters. I had seen Bleak House on TV many years ago so knew the general gist.I do love Dickens but some chapters I found hard work. There were a few chapters - generally about the more minor characters - that I just couldn't grasp so I couldn't focus on what was supposed to be happening i.e. George, Smallweed. The wider story was very engaging and as usual Dickens character descriptions were second to none.
