Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Master Humphrey's Clock, Vol. 1 When the author commenced this Work, he proposed to himself three objects. First. To establish a periodical, which should enable him to present, under one general head, and not as separate and distinct publications, certain fictions which he had it in contemplation to write. Secondly. To produce these Tales in weekly numbers hoping that to shorten the intervals of communication between himself and his readers, would be to knit more closely the pleasant relations they had held, for Forty Months. Thirdly. In the execution of this weekly task, to have as much regard as its exigencies would permit, to each story as a whole, and to the possibility of its publication at some distant day, apart from the machinery in which it had its origin. The characters of Master Humphrey and his three friends, and the little fancy of the clock, were the result of these considerations. When he sought to interest his readers in those who talked, and read, and listened, he revived Mr. Pickwick and his humble friends; not with any intention of reopening an exhausted and abandoned mine, but to connect them in the thoughts of those whose favourites they had been, with the tranquil enjoyments of Master Humphrey.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Master Humphrey's Clock, Vol. 2 AN author, says Fielding, in his introduction to Tom Jones, ' ought to consider himself, not as a gentleman who gives a private or eleemosynary treat, but rather as one who keeps a public ordinary, at which all persons are welcome for their money. Men who pay for what they eat, will insist on gratifying their palates, however nice and whimsical these may prove and if everything is not agreeable to their taste, will challenge a right to censure to abuse.

The story I am about to relate, arose out of one of these rambles; and thus I have been led to speak of them by way of preface. One night I had roamed into the city, and was walk ing slowly on in my usual way, musing upon a great many things, when I was arrested by an inquiry the pur port of which did not reach me, but which seemed to be addressed to myself, and was preferred in a soft sweet voice that struck me very pleasantly. I turned hastily round, and found at my elbow a pretty little girl, who begged to be directed to a certain street at a considerable distance, and indeed in quite another quarter of the town.

This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wellerisms From Pickwick Master Humphrey's Clock So little was the success of Pickwick foreseen, even by its publishers, that no more than 400 copies of each of the earlier numbers, were prepared for issue by being stitched in the green covers. Yet, long before the work was brought to its con elusion, not 400 merely, but more than copies of it had rapidly passed into circulation. What swung it into that astonishing success was the appearance, in its fourth number, of - Sam Weller. The 02's comica of Sam carried everything before it. Everyone recognised at once in him one of the supreme achievements in imaginative literature. From his first utter ance, when he was introduced as Boots at the White Hart in the Borough, he was seen to be not only a master of chaff and slang, but the very incarnation, as might be said, of the mother wit of the streets of Lon don. Of all the many bright and hilarious characters created by Dickens, Sam proved, to the last, incomparably the most gay and voluble. His irrepressible vivacity made him, from the outset, everybody's favour ite. In that epic of drollery, so pre eminent was he as a source of inextin guishable laughter, that, when Moncrieff came to dramatise Pickwick, the title selected by him for the play, almost as a matter of course, was, Sam Weller, or the Pickwickians. Sam won for him self, without an effort, universal accep tance, as one, to use F orster's phrase, whom nobody had ever seen but everybody recognized, at once perfectly natural and intensely original. Sam Weller was to Mr. Pickwick what Sancho Panza was to Don Quixote - an attendant who by the Sheer force of contrast per fected the fun and intensified the absurdity of the ludicrous Situations into which the hero of the narrative was perpetually blundering.
