Charles Dickens 
The Old Curiosity Shop [EPUB ebook] 

The Old Curiosity Shop  follows the life of Nell Trent and her grandfather, both residents of The Old Curiosity Shop in London.
The Old Curiosity Shop was one of two novels (the other being 
Barnaby Rudge) which Dickens published along with short stories in his weekly serial 
Master Humphrey’s Clock, which lasted from 1840 to 1841. It was so popular that New York readers stormed the wharf when the ship bearing the final instalment arrived in 1841, shouting to arriving sailors (who might have already read the final chapters in the United Kingdom), ‘Is Little Nell alive?’
