Nicholas Nickleby, was a Charles Dicken's character correct?
I know I'm somewhat english literature illiterate, and that is not a slam towards you.

Well, for someone illiterate, you got it right. It was actually a pretty important book, as Dickens highlighted (probably exaggerating) problems in some of the private schools in England. It is also a good story. Greedy uncles, abandoned but heroic children, crazy comic characters . . . standard Dickens fare.
