A Tale of Two Cities is a sweeping historical novel set against the backdrop of the French Revolution, exploring the tumultuous events that shake both Paris and London. The story follows two very different men—Charles Darnay, a French aristocrat who renounces his privilege, and Sydney Carton, a disillusioned English lawyer—whose lives become intertwined through love, sacrifice, and revolution. At the center of their shared fate is Lucie Manette, a symbol of compassion and renewal. With its famous opening line, "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times," Dickens paints a vivid portrait of societal upheaval, personal redemption, and the violence born from oppression. The novel is a powerful meditation on resurrection—of individuals, nations, and ideals—and it builds to one of the most memorable and moving climaxes in all of English literature.
