In this book, Dickens tells the story of two men, Sydney Carton and John Barrow, who are both sentenced to death for committing a crime they didn't commit. While in prison, Carton becomes friends with Barrow, and they both learn a lot about life and the world. When they are eventually executed, Carton realizes that he has been living in a dream and that he is actually going to die. However, he is able to find peace in his death, and he is able to help to change the minds of many people who have been oppressed by the aristocracy.; 8vo; Signed by Author.
