Becky Bloomwood, America`s favorite shopaholic, is back in a hilarious, heartwarming tale of married life, best friends, and long-lost sisters (and the perils of simply having to own an Angel handbag!). What`s a round-the-world honeymoon if you can`t buy the odd souvenir to ship back home? Like the twenty silk dressing gowns Becky found in Hong Kong… the hand-carved dining table (and ten chairs) from Sri Lanka… the, um, huge wooden giraffes from Malawi (that her husband Luke expressly forbade her to buy)… Only now Becky and Luke have returned home to London and Luke is furious. Two truckloads of those souvenirs have cluttered up their loft, and the bills for them are outrageous. Luke insists Becky go on a budget. And worse: her...

Becky has never been more excited. Finally, a real sister! They`ll have so much in common! They can go shopping together...choose shoes together...have manicures together...Until she meets her - and gets the shock of her life. It can`t be true.

This collection brings together perhaps the finest of Dickens` shorter novels, filled with event, character, and the unsurpassed brilliance of his story-telling. Oliver Twist enhanced and strengthened Dickens` reputation and contains classic Dickensian themes - grinding poverty, desperation, fear, temptation and the eventual triumph of good in the face of great adversity. Hard Times was attacked by Macaulay for its "sullen socialism", but 20th-century critics - George Bernard Shaw and Leavis praised it in the highest terms. A Tale of Two Cities, Dickens` greatest historical novel, traces the lives of a group of people caught up in the cataclysm of the French Revolution and the Terror. A fascinating range of characters and Dickens` usual...
