ER 2021 #6 (May. 27)

 I read a book called "A tale of two cities". 

"They will be happy. Now I am doing something good. Now at last, I can rest."

The crowd cheered. 'Death to St Evremonde!' they shouted. And Sydney Carton smiled.


The main characters are Miss Lucie, Mr. Charls Darney and Mr. Sydney Carton, They look so similar in appearance that no one think that they are different people.

The story happens in France and England. The story starts with their visit to Miss Lucie's father who was in  prison in France. Doctor Manette does not remember his name or his daughter at first, but, as he goes to England with his daughter and kind man, Mr.Lorry and get better, his memory gradually returns back. they sometimes stand in the court as a witness, and this scene becomes very important in later scene. It is also the scene that they meet Mr. Sydney Carton, who will later become their friend.

Times passed, Miss Lucie and Mr. Charls Darney get married. They move from France to England to live. One day, Mr. Charls Darney's uncle, a marquis, is murdered. His uncle is a French aristocrat who kills a citizen's child by his horse kick while riding on a coach. He just gave the money to the father of the child and goes forward soon. The child's father later run to his coach and sussess to ride on it. And he stelas into his room and killed him.

In France where the aristocrats had been sent innocent people to prison without  any reason. So, the anger of the citizens finally led to a revolution. Because Mr. Charls Darney's uncle was a French aristocrat, all the citizens of France demanded that he also should be executed. His wife, Miss Lucie, and her father Doctor Mannet, cry and worry. Then, their common friend, Mr. Sydney Carton, comes up with a plan to help him. But it is not a easy plan and include much risk.

There is deep and strong friendship in the story, but readers maybe can't feel the happy because of this. If you want to know what happened to the country in the past and his courageous action, please read this!


I read this book and thought a lot about this story. I am not sure that Mr. SYdney's courgeous action is happy to his friends. I would like to read this book again when I grow up more.
