Tale of Two Cities

This is a wonderful book set in the 17th century of France and England was written in the 18th century by one of the literary genius of the the then-England, Charles Dickens.

The novel starts with a slow pace, gather momentum in the mid and runs into an extremely frenzy and nerve racking affair towards the end with an extremely unexpected and satisfying climax.

Its a love story beautifully woven into the fabric of the fury of French Revolution. Its about the 'Lady Guillotine', the one borne out of the oppression of the peasant class by the French Nobles.
Its about the fury that rose after intense subjugation to exterminate the King and subsequently the Queen of France. Its a story of love, sacrifice and revenge.

Do not miss this one if have'nt read it yet.
