Charles John Huffam Dickens was born on 7 February 1812 in Portsmouth, England . His happy early childhood was interrupted when his father was sent to debtors' prison, and young Dickens had to go to work in a factory at age twelve . This traumatic experience gave him a lifelong commitment to social justice and a deep understanding of poverty and hardship. He worked as an office boy and journalist before publishing essays and stories in the 1830s . His first novel, The Pickwick Papers (1836โ1837), made him a famous and popular author at the age of twenty-five . Subsequent works were published serially in periodicals, cementing his reputation as a master of colourful characterization and a harsh critic of social evils and corrupt institutions . He married Catherine Hogarth in 1836, and the couple had ten children before separating in 1858 . He died on 9 June 1870, leaving his final novel, The Mystery of Edwin Drood, unfinished . The bust exhibited at the Charles Dickens Museum in London captures his likeness .
Key Works:
The Pickwick Papers (1836โ1837) โ His first novel, a series of comical adventures that made him a literary sensation
Oliver Twist (1837โ1839) โ An unromantic portrayal of criminals and the cruel treatment of orphans in London
