Dickens. The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby. London: Chapman and Hall, 1839. Nicholas Nickleby was first published between March 1838 and September 1839 in nineteen installments. Today, nineteenth-century novels “in parts” are scarce. They remain, however, important scholarly sources, preserving vital evidence of how Victorian fiction was packaged, marketed, and read.
