The Signal-Man

Featured Listen
The Pickwick Papers is Dickens's first novel, catapulting the author to fame at the age of 24. Originally published in 19 monthly installments from 1836 to 1837, this comedic gem also played a pivotal role in establishing the format and popularity of serialized fiction with cliffhanger endings. The novel is known for its humor and memorable characters but also features social commentary.

Though it's hard to argue with Merriam-Webster, we all know that life means something more than the standard dictionary definition—or, at least, we want it to. If you're searching for insights into the meaning of life, or words of inspiration to make your life more meaningful, there's no better source than authors of great works of literature. From Shakespeare to Alice Walker, from Jane Austen to Saul Bellow, iconic authors have a lot to say about life.
