    About this audiobook

    This is a story of a boy, who has to see his loved ones passing away as his life goes on, and he sees them among angels and dreams of joining them, but his time has not come yet. He sees his sister who’s gone as they were children, his little brother who’s died it infancy, his mother, his daughter, but is unable to get close to them. Incredibly touching and heartfelt, this beautiful story that one may consider unsuitable for children, but your kid will be definitely moved and affected, but will not regret reading this marvelous tale written with exquisite and refined language of Charles Dickens.

    Charles Dickens

    Charles Dickens was born in 1812 and grew up in poverty. This experience influenced ‘Oliver Twist’, the second of his fourteen major novels, which first appeared in 1837. When he died in 1870, he was buried in Poets’ Corner in Westminster Abbey as an indication of his huge popularity as a novelist, which endures to this day.
