A Tale of Two Cities is a classic historical novel by Charles Dickens, published in 1859, that weaves a gripping story of love, sacrifice, and revolution set against the turbulent backdrop of late 18th-century London and Paris during the French Revolution. Through the intertwined lives of characters like the aristocratic Charles Darnay, the resilient Lucie Manette, and the brooding Sydney Carton, it explores themes of resurrection, social injustice, and the human cost of upheaval, famously opening with the line, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.” This is a public episode.
