This experience influenced ‘Oliver Twist’, the second of his fourteen major novels, which first appeared in 1837. When he died in 1870, he was buried in Poets’ Corner in Westminster Abbey as an indication of his huge popularity as a novelist, which endures to this day.","brand":"Pavilion Children","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40361209921621,"sku":"9781843653035N","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2481\/5790\/products\/53b5896f-062d-4092-bf37-ae8ab73eda65.jpg?v=1664793978","url":"https:\/\/smeikalbooks.co.uk\/en-us\/products\/quentin-blakes-a-christmas-carol-2015-edition","provider":"smeikalbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
