Charles Dickens & Peckham Rye

[Dodo1]

Hi

I was listening to the Radio London and I heard that Charles Dickens' lover lived in a house on the corner of Peckham Rye/ ED. Does anyone know more- including which house?

I think Dicken's mistress lived on Linden Grove.

Lindon Grove would be right. Check this out: -

Did anyone see the program me about Mrs. Dickens? he treated her quite badly.

I think he is overrated myself. Yes he had an eye/ empathy- but if he had not been paid by the word his books would be the better for it.

There- I've said it- BBC's radio coverage of it is OTT.

Dickens in 140 characters?

I caught a bit of the BBC's coverage of Dickens and reported his popularity was equivalent to that of the Beetle's in his time.
