Presents Dickens' classic novel of love, courage, and sacrifice set against the cataclysmic events of the French Revolution. During the French Revolution a sissolute English lawyer goes to th eguillotine to save a French aristocrat, husband of the woman he loves.

The classic novel tells the story of Charles Darnay, Lucie Manette, Sydney Carton, and others. The narrative is split between Paris and London in the time leading up to the French Revolution (1789-1799). Dickens uses the story as a vehicle to portray the social inequities and injustices that the French peasantry faced at the hands of the aristocracy, which ultimately led to the Revolution. This bilingual edition is designed to assist those learning French. The English text appears on the left-hand pages of the book, with the corresponding French on the right-hand pages.

Just before France's bloody revolution, watch the drama unfold through the eyes of Lucie, Charles and Sidney, three people whose lives are about to change forever.
