The Uncommercial Traveller, Hard Times, and The Mystery of Edwin Drood George Walter Vincent Smith Art Museum and natureThis single volume from the popular, double column "Household Edition" anthologizes three distinct works from Dickens' later career. It compiles his journalistic sketches of London life (The Uncommercial Traveller), his sharp social critique of industrial utilitarianism (Hard Times), and his famously unfinished final psychological murder mystery (The Mystery of Edwin Drood).
