What if Charles Dickens could also be read as an economist?

Literature can reveal how economic systems feel from the inside, and how microeconomic forces influence everyday choices, opportunities and power. #CharlesDickens #HardTimes #Victorianliterature #Microeconomics #books #reading #ReaderPsychology #CriticalThinking #EconomicsAndLiterature #ReadingMotivation #English #0212 #ArthurWren
