life was hard for the poor people.Charles’s father could not get

He learned foreign languages and studied literature.At fifteen Charles left school and worked in a lawyer’s office.He studied
shorthand at that time and took up the work of a parliamentary
reporter to a London newspaper.This work led him to journalism
and then to novel writing.In 1836 he published his first book
,,Sketches by Boz”,a collection of short stories about London life.

mous. In his next novels, ,,Oliver Twist”(1838) and ,,Nicholas
