In 1844, Dickens took a respite from writing novels and for several months traveled through France and Italy with his family. They visited the most famous sights: Genoa, Rome, Naples (with Vesuvius still smouldering), Florence, and Venice. In his travelogue, Dickens portrays a nation of great contrasts: grandiose buildings and urban desolation, and everyday life beside ancient monuments. But it is his encounters with Italy's colorful street life that capture the imagination. Dickens descriptions are, as usual with his writing, second to none and provide a vivid portrait of Italy at the dawn of the age of rail.
