Publisher's Synopsis

""George Silverman's Explanation"" is a short story written by Charles Dickens. The story follows the life of a young boy named George Silverman, who is orphaned at a young age and taken in by his uncle. George grows up to become a successful businessman, but he is haunted by a traumatic event from his past. He seeks the help of a psychologist, who encourages him to write down his story in order to confront and overcome his demons. Through his writing, George is able to come to terms with his past and find peace. The story explores themes of trauma, memory, and the power of storytelling to heal emotional wounds.WHAT do I know of Hoghton Towers? Very little; for I have been gratefully unwilling to disturb my first impressions. A house, centuries old, on high ground a mile or so removed from the road between Preston and Blackburn, where the first James of England, in his hurry to make money by making baronets, perhaps made some of those remunerative dignitaries. A house, centuries old, deserted and falling to pieces, its woods and gardens long since grass-land or ploughed up.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
