Brief description
The Mystery of Edwin Drood monthly parts, 1870
Label
The Mystery of Edwin Drood was Dickens's last novel, left unfinished when Dickens died in 1870. Like most of Dickens's novels, Drood was serialised in monthly collections of 4-5 chapters. Although he died in June 1870, Dickens had written enough that instalments were published until September. Drood's mystery was left unresolved. In the back page of the September instalment the publishers say Dickens left no clues as to the conclusion, and had only finished the most recent page two hours before his death.
