Le magasin d'antiquités, Tome II

by Charles Dickens

Translated by Alfred Des Essarts

"Le magasin d'antiquités, Tome II" by Charles Dickens is a novel published in 1841. Young Nell Trent lives with her grandfather in a London curiosity shop filled with grotesque and sinister objects. Their mysterious circumstances become clear when the deformed and cruel dwarf Daniel Quilp enters their lives. The story shifts from mystery to adventure as the pair embark on a picaresque journey across the countryside. Their tale of misfortune and persecution moved thousands of readers to plead for Nell's survival, making her fate one of the most famous moments in English fiction.
