Sobre este artículo
The Charles Dickens Edition, 545 pages with eight illustrations.
A very nice contemporary (undated) copy of Dickens's classic, published between 1867 and 1879 (Chapman and Hall published some undated editions during that period). Very good condition, with some foxing on illustrations and a little rubbing on edges, hinges, heel and head of spine. All pages are tight, clean and unmarked, with very slight age-darkening; binding tight, completely intact; some slight bumping of corners.

Sinopsis
Charles Dickens’s story of a powerful man whose callous neglect of his family triggers his professional and personal downfall showcases the author’s gift for vivid characterization and unfailingly realistic description. It follows the narrative of a shipping firm owner, who abandoned his family in favor of fortune after rejecting his daughter’s love in preference of a son. He later reconciles with her and begs forgiveness before his death. Dombey and Son is a novel by the Victorian author Charles Dickens. It was first published in monthly parts between October 1846 and April 1848 with the full title Dealings with the Firm of Dombey and Son: Wholesale, Retail, and for Exportation . Dickens started writing the book in Lausanne, Switzerland, but traveled extensively during the course of its writing, returning to England to begin another work before completing Dombey and Son.
