Go back and read again Tale of Two cities. What were the two cities? What did they have in common that was key to the book? I was sort of shocked when I read this last year because you just don’t see this stuff when you are younger.

Okay, if I recall, the two cities are Paris and London. They have an awful lot in common. I know that Dickens wrote the book as a warning to England in particular and the world in general what could happen if you ignore the needs of the common people for too long.
