The latest issue of the Times Literary Supplement has a review by Grace Moore of The Reception of Charles Dickens in Europe, edited by Michael Hollington. A sample of Moore's review:
"Charles Dickens is, more than any other writer of the nineteenth century, associated with Englishness — for celebrating home and hearth as well as his persistent attention to social problems in his native country. This outstanding new collection of essays, edited by Michael Hollington, asks us to consider Dickens in a much more cosmopolitan light. It engages with the question of the author’s popularity on the Continent in his lifetime and beyond, and the results are fascinating."
