I was Leggere Charles Dicken's A Tale of Two Cities and I notice that it reminds me of Les Miserables in a way, ready to read my observation?
A Tale of Two Cities
Since they're set in France, many of the characters reminds me of their Les Miserables counterparts! Like Doctor Manette reminds me of Jean Valjean, due to the fact that they were prisoners. Unlike the latter, Doctor Manette suffers from a relapse throughout the story which prompted Mr Lorry to destroy the shoe making bench.
The Defarge reminds me of the Thenadiers, unlike the latter, the Defarge are not corrupted. Madame Defarge is a combination of Javert and Madame Thenadier due to the fact that she's a vengeful character who is misled that cause her to die.
Carton also reminds me of both Eponine and Valjean because they sacrifice themselves for their loved ones, especially when Carton rescues Darnay from prison and from being executed.
Ironically, it was also make into a musical, but it is underrated sadly.
Les Miserables
As mentioned, since both are set during the French Revolution. A Tale of Two Cities was still ongoing as the story progresses, while in Les Miserables it ended with the execution of all of the revolutionaries after the July Revolution.
Valjean managed to redeem himself after the prologue and he definitely reminds me Carton. Speaking of the latter, he was also involve in a Amore triangolo like Eponine and I feel bad for him as the story progresses until his sacrificial Amore at the end!

i saw the amaro heart-break
that she had to take from
leaving her only child to
try to make a life for her
as best as she could,
i thought when i heard
her song of desperation
it would change the way
that i felt about her
sorrow and the pain that
she had to endure on her
own.
As she dreamed a dream
that she thought would
come true, as she sang
about those dreams that
she wanted so much to
come true, my heart-
broke as she spoke about
the things that would never be.
Her voice showed that there
was some-thing missing her
life that she wanted so much
to be free from the pain that
held her captive for as
long as she was unable to
break free,
I heard Fantine's dream and
i knew that in my cuore she
would never see those dreams
that she had fullfilled inside
her soul, but those dreams
were the only thing that she
held on-to to keep her strong
towards the end of her life,
