The article sets out to explore Dickens's readings out of its Victorian context. The article examines two modern authors, Namely Evelyn Waugh and Lloyd Jones, who stage Dickensian readings in a jungle, light years removed from the Victorian London. Stripped of its Victorian elements, Dickens's macrotext does not lose interest, but captivates readers who find it resonating with their own humanities.

Abstract

The article sets out to explore Dickens's readings out of its Victorian context. The article examines two modern authors, Namely Evelyn Waugh and Lloyd Jones, who stage Dickensian readings in a jungle, light years removed from the Victorian London. Stripped of its Victorian elements, Dickens's macrotext does not lose interest, but captivates readers who find it resonating with their own humanities.
