Description

The Invisible Woman: The Story Of Nelly Ternan And Charles Dickens by Claire Tomalin is a remarkable biography that returns to the neglected actress Nelly Ternan her rightful place in history. This multi-award-winning work of historical revisionism provides a compelling and truthful portrait of the great Victorian novelist, shedding new light on his personal life. By dramatizing the process by which women have been written out of history, Tomalin's biography offers invaluable reading for those interested in Charles Dickens and biography in general. The result is a vivid and engaging story that will be seen as one of the crucial women's biographies of its time.
