    Charles Dickens' A Tale of Two Cities was first serialised in a couple of small regional newspapers. It was in the Bicester Times, it was in the Worcester Times. IGMC

                Oliver Twist for that one at another time; 'tis a Bleak House indeed that Nicholas Nickleby wouldn't carol at Christmas.

                  from Wikipedia:

                  Quote:

                  The 45-chapter novel was published in 31 weekly instalments in Dickens's new literary periodical titled All the Year Round. From April 1859 to November 1859, Dickens also republished the chapters as eight monthly sections in green covers. All but three of Dickens's previous novels had appeared only as monthly instalments. The first weekly instalment of A Tale of Two Cities ran in the first issue of All the Year Round on 30 April 1859. The last ran thirty weeks later, on 26 November.[1]

                  Quote:

                  The new weekly magazine had its debut issue on Saturday 30 April 1859, featuring the first instalment of Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities.[5][6] The launch was an immediate success. “So well has All the Year Round gone that it was yesterday able to repay me, with five per cent. interest, all the money I advanced for its establishment (paper, print etc. all paid, down to the last number), and yet to leave a good £500 balance at the banker's![4]

                  You are not worthy to lick the mud-stained boot soles of Oliver Twist, let alone besmirch the great Dickens' good name :)

                  «... thank the gods that they have made you superior to those events which they have not placed within your own control, rendered you accountable for that only which is within you own control For what, then, have they made you responsible? For that which is alone in your own power—a right use of things as they appear.» Discourses of Epictetus Book I:12
