Before Fleet-street had reached its present importance, and when George the Third was young, and the two figures who used to strike the chimes at old St. Dunstan's church were in all their glory--being a great impediment to errand-boys on their progress, and a matter of gaping curiosity to country people--there stood close to the sacred edifice a small barber's shop, which was kept by a man of the name of Sweeney Todd.
🎧 Includes the full unabridged audiobook (LibriVox recording) along with the ePub.
Description
The Victorian penny dreadful that introduced Sweeney Todd, the 'Demon Barber of Fleet Street,' to the world. A lurid, gripping tale of murder, madness, and meat pies in the dark streets of Georgian London — one of the great guilty pleasures of English popular fiction.
