The family moved to London in 1823, but their fortunes were severely impaired. Dickens was sent to work in a blacking-warehouse when his father was imprisoned for debt.

Thereafter, Dickens published his major novels over the course of the next twenty years, from \u003ci\u003eNicholas Nickleby\u003c\/i\u003e to \u003ci\u003eLittle Dorrit\u003c\/i\u003e.
