Nicholas Nickleby is left responsible for his mother and sister when his father dies. The novel follows his attempt to succeed in supporting them, despite his uncle Ralph's antagonistic lack of belief in him. It is one of Dickens' early comic novels.

Mike reviewed The life and adventures of Nicholas Nickleby. By Charles Dickens ... with illustrations. by Michigan Historical Reprint Series

worth the invested time

4 stars

This felt an enormous read. At times could do with tighter editing, but I think that's a product of the original serial format.

The book follows the titular character, his family and friends through good and bad.
