The Last Entry of "A Tale of Two Cities"

Today, I finished the book "A Tale of Two Cities." Now, I finally found the story that I was looking for. Until now, I did not have a clue what the story was, but as I progessed farther into the story, I found it. And it was quite endearing(?) also. When I found that Charles Darnay, or Evre'monde as he is called, was to be imprisoned again, I felt kind of 'tired(?)' that I thought the same story was going to be followed again and again. But I found out that it wasn't. In fact, it gave me a great impression. Sydney Carton was a hero after all! So, I think I can actually say that I enjoyed the book after finishing it and have a lot of mixed emotions about what happened to all of the characters in the end.

My Fifth Reading Week

For this week’s reading of A Tale of Two Cities, Charles Darnay is now captured in France of the La Force Prison. After he went to save his friend, Gabelle, he was caught and imprisoned. However, good news to Darnay, Dr. Manette, who has a great and good influence in France arrives and manages to save the to save Charles Darnay as he talks to the jury in the court that was about to send Darnay to death, I was beginning to see a connection between the countries and that there is a story in this once what I thought “story”.

4th Blog Entry; A Tale of Two Cities

- In this reading, the French Revolution finally began from the storming of the Bastille Prison, in this scene, you can see how deadly the French people were when they were fighting, how they have become cold and mutinous about the French. They used all the weapons they could use against the French Prison keepers. And even still, they won! But here, I think you can see the deadliness the Defarges have been holding up in their hearts against the royalties of the French. Another I want to pick at is why the Mannetes or Charles Darnay were introduced. It comes out that they were married, but I don't see a connection between the two utterly different topics. Right now at the moment, the book is becoming boring, however I still have the sense of expectations for Charles Dickens...

Week Three

This is now the third week of reading "A Tale of Two Cities" and so far, the plot is very ordinary, the narrator (3rd Person) is just describing how the lives of all the characters are playing out at that moment. Few new characters have appeared; Mr. Stryyver, Sydney Carton, and Charles Darnay, who appears to be a very prosperous man in France, decided to renounce his property and come to England. So now, the story is beginning to take place in England where all three new characters are asking Miss Mannete to marry him. So here, Mr. Lorry stops Mr. Stryyver to ask Miss Mannete because he thought that Mr. Stryyver was not good enough for the Doctor's daughter. The other two however, had more success in the goal towards marriage. Charles Darnay asked the Doctor, the father of Miss Mannete, whether he approves of him or not. Sydney Carton however tells Miss Mannete if she could like him or not.
The story till now for me seems sort of boring still, but I'm still looking forward to the main plot, if there is one.
