Dr Manette is released after eighteen years in the Bastille and brought to London. His daughter Lucie, the French aristocrat Charles Darnay and the dissolute English lawyer Sydney Carton are drawn back across the Channel as the Revolution turns to Terror.
Dickens builds the novel out of doubles and repetitions, from its famous opening sentence to two men who resemble each other closely enough to matter. It is his tightest plot, and the ending is among the most quoted in English fiction.
- How Dickens sets the two cities against each other so that events in one keep detonating in the other.
- Why the novel treats the Revolution as both justified by cruelty and monstrous in what it becomes.
- What eighteen years in the Bastille does to Dr Manette, and how the shoemaker’s bench keeps returning.
- How the resemblance between Carton and Darnay is planted early and paid off at the end.
- Why Madame Defarge’s knitting is a record, and what it means that the register cannot be appealed.
- How the closing lines reframe Carton’s whole wasted life in a single sentence.
