    A Tale of Two Cities (1859) by Charles Dickens is a gripping novel set against the tumultuous backdrop of London and Paris during the French Revolution. With over 200 million copies sold, it stands as one of the most celebrated works of fiction. The story vividly illustrates the struggles of the French peasantry oppressed by an arrogant aristocracy, the ensuing violence of the revolutionaries toward the former elite, and the unsettling social parallels with life in London at that time. Through the intertwined lives of several memorable characters, particularly Charles Darnay—a virtuous former aristocrat caught in the chaos—and Sydney Carton—a disillusioned British barrister seeking redemption driven by his unrequited love for Darnays wife, Lucie Manette—the novel explores themes of sacrifice, love, and resurrection.
