"A tender testament of faith from one of the greatest storytellers of all time."
Written in 1849 for the eyes of his children alone, The Life of Our Lord reveals a deeply personal side of Charles Dickens. Known for his sharp social critique and unforgettable characters, Dickens steps away from fiction to offer this gentle and heartfelt retelling of the life of Jesus Christ. Unpublished during his lifetime, this simple and sincere narrative brings the story of the Gospel to life through Dickens's compassionate voice. Free of doctrine and full of warmth, it captures both his deep admiration for Christ's teachings and his desire to pass on those values to the next generation.
