Born in Portsmouth, England, Dickens had little formal education and became a law clerk at the age of fifteen and later became a shorthand reporter, learning to write rapidly. Having a genuine love for people, he wrote mostly about the lower classes of people in England exposing social wrongs of his time. Portraying realistically the sufferings of children (based on his own experience of working in a factory at a young age) he attacked what he believed were the most serious abuses of the poor and through the vivid pictures in many of his books he convinced many people throughout Great Britain that such conditions had to be changed. Through his writings he created some of the best known characters in English literature. His novels included those such as the renowned David Copperfield, Oliver Twist, A Christmas Carol, Great Expectations and A Tale of Two Cities.
