Description

This late short story by Charles Dickens is a tale of a man writing about his unfulfilled life; and getting it all wrong in the telling; of a boy who tries to become an irreproachable young man but who somehow fails to escape his past.

First Sentence

IT happened in this wise - But, sitting with my pen in my hand looking at those words again, without descrying any hint in them of the words that should follow, it comes into my mind that they have an abrupt appearance.
