Dickens

February 7, 1812: Charles Dickens was born.

A few years ago, I would have said that Bleak House contains the most insight for modern times via the case of Jarndyce v. Jarndyce. 

Now, however, I think we're back to A Tale of Two Cities. 

Reincarnations of Madame Defarge can be found in many a news story and on social media.
