Description:

Set during the French Revolution, this classic tale moves between London and Paris as ordinary lives are swept up in extraordinary, dangerous times. Charles Darnay, a French aristocrat trying to escape his family's past, and Sydney Carton, a clever but troubled English lawyer, are both drawn to the same woman, Lucie Manette, whose father has suffered greatly at the hands of the old regime. As revolution and violence sweep through Paris, both men are tested in ways they never expected. A timeless story of sacrifice, love and redemption, showing how far someone might go for the people they love.
