Black Hearts in Battersea is a children's novel by Joan Aiken first published in 1964. The second book in the Wolves Chronicles, it is loosely a sequel to her earlier Wolves of Willoughby Chase. The book is set in a slightly altered historical England—during the reign of King James III—in the early 19th century, and follows the adventures of Simon, an orphan whose plans to study painting in London are derailed by high adventure. Aiken was inspired to create an atmosphere of important events having already transpired offstage (which was helped by the fact that a great deal of the beginning had to be left out due to length), and also included an involved "Dickensian plot" which she believed to complement the habit many children have of rereading or having a book reread to them.

  • Los malvados de Battersea es una novela infantil de Joan Aiken publicada por primera vez en 1964. El segundo libro de las Crónicas de los Lobos, es vagamente una secuela de su anterior Lobos de Willoughby Chase. El libro está ambientado en una Inglaterra histórica ligeramente alterada, durante el reinado del rey James III, a principios del siglo XIX, y sigue las aventuras de Simon, un huérfano cuyos planes de estudiar pintura en Londres se ven frustrados por una gran aventura. Aiken se inspiró para crear una atmósfera de eventos importantes que ya habían ocurrido fuera del escenario (a lo que ayudó el hecho de que una gran parte del comienzo tuvo que omitirse debido a la extensión), y también incluyó una "trama dickensiana" complicada que ella creía para complementar la costumbre que tienen muchos niños de releer o que les relean un libro. ​ (es)
