Reddit reviews A Tale of Two Cities

Available for free for Kindle on Amazon:

• [Tess of the D'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy] (http://www.amazon.com/Tess-dUrbervilles-Thomas-Hardy-ebook/dp/B0084B0CKA/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1411463085&sr=1-1&keywords=tess+of+the+d%27urbervilles)
  Almost anything by Thomas Hardy classifies as a tear-jerker with a sad ending, but none of them are quite so catastrophic as Tess.
  
  
• [A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens] (http://www.amazon.com/Tale-Two-Cities-Charles-Dickens-ebook/dp/B004EHZXVQ/ref=sr_1_2?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1411463158&sr=1-2&keywords=A+tale+of+two+cities) The ending of this one slayed me. I normally can't stand Dickens, but I love this book.
  
  
  
• [Sylvia's Lovers by Elizabeth Gaskell] (http://www.amazon.com/Sylvias-Lovers-Elizabeth-Cleghorn-Gaskell-ebook/dp/B00849TP9G/ref=sr_1_12?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1411463230&sr=1-12&keywords=sylvia%27s+lovers+by+elizabeth+gaskell) This one is pretty tragic. I really enjoy Gaskell's style and the way she writes her characters, but I prefer her other books to this one. I'd recommend North and South, and Wives and Daughters over this one, but they both have happy endings.
  
  
  
• [Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte] (http://www.amazon.com/Wuthering-Heights-SIMON-SCHUSTER-CLASSICS-ebook/dp/B00IWTWFOK/ref=sr_1_5?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1411463326&sr=1-5&keywords=wuthering+heights) This one is pretty damn bleak and depressing.

• [The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood] (http://www.amazon.com/Handmaids-Tale-Vintage-Classics-ebook/dp/B0082BAJA0/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1411463410&sr=1-1&keywords=the+handmaid%27s+tale+by+margaret+atwood) It's more of a dystopian novel set in a post-apocalyptic world than a true apocalpse novel, but it's really good. Quite dark.

Charles Dickens' novel A Tale of Two Cities (Free Kindle Download) references this with the following quote:

>A wonderful fact to reflect upon, that every human creature is constituted to be that profound secret and mystery to every other. A solemn consideration, when I enter a great city by night, that every one of those darkly clustered houses encloses its own secret; that every room in every one of them encloses its own secret; that every beating heart in the hundreds of thousands of breasts there, is, in some of its imaginings, a secret to the heart nearest it!

The modern phenomenon of thousands of people passing each other every day - in cars, trains and planes - only serves to make this even more poignant.
