He created some of the world's most memorable fictional characters and is generally regarded as the greatest novelist of the Victorian period. During his life， his works enjoyed unprecedented fame， and by the twentieth century his literary genius was broadly acknowledged by critics and scholars. His novels and short stories continue to be widely popular.　　His novels， most published in monthly or weekly instalments， pioneered the serial publication of narrative fiction， which became the dominant Victorian mode for novel publication. His most famous novels are David Copperfield， Oliver Twist， Bleak House and Great Expectations.　　Dickens was regarded as the literary colossus of his age. His 1843 novella， A Christmas Carol， is one of the most influential works ever written， and it remains popular and continues to inspire adaptations in every artistic genre. His creative genius has been praised by fellow writers-from Leo Tolstoy to G. K. Chesterton and George Orwell-for its realism， comedy， prose style， unique characterizations， and social criticism. On the other hand Oscar Wilde， Henry James and Virginia Woolf complained of a lack of psychological depth， loose writing， and a vein of saccharine sentimentalism.
