Résumé
Il Circolo Pickwick è il libro che rese di colpo famoso il ventiseienne Charles Dickens, aprendogli la strada del successo. Sullo sfondo della vecchia Inghilterra cordiale e ricca di umanità, eccentrica e truffaldina, bizzarri gentiluomini, vecchie zitelle a caccia di marito, ladruncoli impenitenti, servette pettegole, domestici astuti, bellimbusti imbecilli, ragazze seducenti si agitano in un microcosmo esilarante ma al tempo stesso percorso da sottili inquietudini.
