It's hard to say which of Dickens' books is best, since much depends on personal preference, knowledge of critical techniques, etc. G.K. Chesterton has written reviews of Dickens' novels and the web site containing it is attached. Best known among his works are probably A Tale of Two Cities, A Christmas Carol,and Oliver Twist.
Oliver Twist is the first novel Charles Dickens wrote; it was published in serial form, beginning in 1837. Some scholars argue that it should not be considered a novel, since the first volume of the book was written before Dickens decided it would be expanded to a full novel. Therefore, the tone, narrative structure and primary focus shifts drastically throughout the book.
Charles Dickens' first book was "The Pickwick Papers," also known as "The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club," published in 1836.
Lionel Bart wrote the music for the 1968 movie named Oliver! There was a 1948 movie but it was not a musical. None of the many other Oliver Twist movies were made in 1946.
Oliver Twist (1838) is Charles Dickens' second novel...The Pickwick Papers (1837) being his first.While some readers consider Sketches by Boz (1836) to be his first novel, this isn't the case. Sketches is in fact a collection of 56 sketches (or short stories) that Dickens originally published individually in various magazines and periodicals between 1833 and 1836.
Oliver Twist was only Dickens's second novel and was a dramatic departure from Pickwick, so was experimental in both genre and structure. Oliver Twist was the first book featuring a child as the protagonist. The book combines attributes of the typical Victorian 'sensation' novel and Gothic fiction, topical satire, elements of the fairy tale, and standard fiction. Dickens was still learning his craft and finding his own voice when he wrote Oliver Twist, but his later books would also incorporate multiple genres.
