HarperCollins is proud to present its new range of best-loved, essential classics. 'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times!' Set before and during the French Revolution in the cities of Paris and London, A Tale of Two Cities tells the story of Dr Manette's release from imprisonment in the Bastille and his reunion with daughter, Lucie. A French aristocrat Darnay and English lawyer Carton compete in their love for Lucie and the ensuing tale plays out against the menacing backdrop of the French Revolution and the shadow of the guillotine.

Great Book!
A Tale of Two Cities was one of the best books I've ever read. I didn't really care for it at first. It didn't make much sense, but when I got about half way through, things started to unravel. The last few pages made the book worth reading. Don't just read the last few pages though. That would ruin everything.
