With The Pickwick Papers Charles Dickens became, overnight, an international literary star. One critic predicted that the great Boz would "go up like a rocket and come down like a stick." Instead Dickens became Britain's best-known writer, the author of A Christmas Carol, David Copperfield, Bleak House, Little Dorrit and many other works that remain widely read today.
