Charles Darnay got introduced to Doctor Manette and Lucie Manette while they were living in London. Charles Darnay fell in love with Lucie Manette in course of time. Sydney Carton, an Englishman, also came to know Doctor Manette and his daughter. He had a noteworthy facial similarity with Charles Darnay. He started to love Lucie Manette as well. Charles Darnay hailed from a wealthy French family while Sydney Carton had no significant identity. He was a very ordinary man with no remarkable job or earnings. However, Charles Darnay succeeded in his pursuit and married Lucie Manette with her and her father’s consent. Sydney Carton, nevertheless, continued to love Lucie Manette and one day he promised to Lucie Manette that someday he would prove his selfless love for Lucie. Anyway, as French Revolution broke out all over France, people got hold of all the landlords of France and started killing them on guillotines. Gabelle, an old servant of Charles Darnay’s family, sent a letter to Charles Darnay informing that he had been arrested by the revolutionaries. He requested Charles Darnay to come to Paris to get him out of prison. Charles Darnay left for France without informing his wife. He just left a letter at home. As soon as Charles Darnay reached Paris, he was detained by the revolutionaries as he belonged to the family of an exploitative landlord. Lucie Manette and Doctor Manette left for France too as they were highly worried about Charles Darnay’s safety. Charles Darnay was thrown into prison by the revolutionaries and Doctor Manette found no way to get him liberated. A striking thing happened at that point. Sydney Carton appeared in Paris too. He came to know from Doctor Manette about Charles Darnay’s arrest. He bribed the prison guard and took Charles Darnay out of prison and moved inside prison to replace Charles Darnay. Charles Darnay reunited with his family. As the novel ends, Sydney Carton gets executed by the revolutionaries. Sydney Carton sacrificed his own life to restore happiness in Lucie Manette’s family. He saved Charles Darnay in exchange for his own life just to prove his selfless love for Lucie which was an act of supreme self-dedication.
