For anyone with an appreciation of Charles Dickens and his numerous forays into the depths of the political and social life of late Victorian times, Drood will provide a delicious and fascinating look into Dickens’ life as seen by his friend and confidant Wilkie Collins, himself a noted writer of the times.
