Book Details
First Sentence
"Our image of the early nineteenth-century playwright is coloured by Dickens's 'Mr Johnson' (alias Nicholas Nickleby), who in the space of twenty-four hours is expected to write a play designed 'to bring out the whole strength of the company', while contriving simultaneously 'to introduce a real pump and two washing-tubs' which the manager happens to have bought cheap at a sale the other day."
