The Pickwick Papers
by
by

Dickens's first "novel," though it's more picaresque than a novel. Its episodic nature is both its virtue and downfall: the invididual adventures are priceless, though the book doesn't have the complex Dickensian plot to drag you along. This book is fairly consistently hilarious. It's an important book historically seeing that it launched Dickens's career, but I wouldn't say it's an absolute must-read.
