With the French Revolution as the background, this book cleverly connects the two cities of Paris and London, thereby staging the grudges between Doctor Manette's family and the old French aristocracy, and showing the author's deep thinking on revolution and human nature.

The novel uses daily life as the material, vividly reflecting the conservative and secluded British rural life and social conditions from the late 18th to the early 19th century. It expresses the author's own concept of marriage and emphasizes the impact of economic interests and family status on love and marriage.
