A Tale of Two Cities
Dickens splits the novel between London and Paris as the French Revolution turns from hope to the guillotine. Recalled to life, wasted lives, and a last substitution still land because the book is built on faces, not slogans. This public-domain classic is one of the best historical novels in English to read on a commute — or to download as EPUB for the long prison chapters.
