Synopsis:

Chambers Dictionary of Literary Characters provides an invaluable guide to the wealth of characters created by writers in English, with over 6,500 entries from novels, plays and poetry - from the Wife of Bath to Bertie Wooster, and Tom Sawyer to Harry Potter.

Features include concise biographies of the authors, panels covering such topics as 'The Detective in Fiction' and 'Dickens' Characters', and an appendix of literary awards.

About the Author: Chambers is one of the world's most respected dictionary publishers, appealing particularly to word lovers and those who revel in all the quirks of the English language. Its extensive list of innovative language and reference titles includes the renowned Brewer's list of endlessly browsable dictionaries of phrase and fable, and covers English-language dictionaries and thesauruses for every level of user from school to crossword fan, from English learner to student of slang. Meticulously researched and expertly written, the highly acclaimed Chambers range has been at the forefront of presenting knowledge and learning in an engaging and accessible way since it was first established in the 19th century.
