Charles Dickens | Hard Times

Legacy

A young Charles is filled with imagination and ambition, but his childhood

with humiliation and uncertainty. His father is in and out of debtors’ prison and he is forced to sacrifice his education for a string of menial jobs to make ends meet. But he discovers he has a skill. He can paint pictures with words like no one else can. Could this be his destiny?
