The Holly Tree was first published by Charles Dickens in 1855. It's an interesting study of class connection filled with Dickens’ ear for the speaking patterns of various classes. The interaction of classes is also a dawning experience for the primary narrator who in chapter one is exposed to all sorts of horror stories in print but does not hear a story of selfless loss until he invites a servant to sit with him and chat. The book tells a delightful little tale with its dual romance. The “second branch”, telling of the elopement of two small children for Gretna Green, was one of the best liked of author’s readings, and it remains today probably one of the most popular of minor writings of Charles Dickens.The book is full of the kindliest of humor. It gives an odd idea and gets something of the effect of a Fairy Story out of the most unlikely materials.

Charles John Huffam Dickens (7 February 1812 – 9 June 1870) was an English writer and social critic. He created some of the world's bestknown fictional characters and is regarded by many as the greatest novelist of the Victorian era. His works enjoyed unprecedented popularity during his lifetime, and by the 20th century, critics and scholars had recognized him as a literary genius. His novels and short stories are still widely read today. Born in Portsmouth, Dickens left school to work in a factory when his father was incarcerated in a debtors' prison. Despite his lack of formal education, he edited a weekly journal for 20 years, wrote 15 novels, five novellas, hundreds of short stories and nonfiction articles, lectured and performed readings extensively. He was an indefatigable letter writer and campaigned vigorously for children's rights, education, and other social reforms.He was regarded as the literary colossus of his age.
