《双城记》（A Tale of Two Cities）是英国作家查尔斯·狄更斯（Charles Dickens）所著的一部以法国大革命为背景所写成的长篇历史小说，首次出版于1859年。
该小说情节感人肺腑，是世界文学经典名著之一，故事中将巴黎、伦敦两个大城市连结起来，围绕着曼奈特医生一家和以德法奇夫妇为首的圣安东尼区展开故事。书中描写了贵族如何败坏、如何残害百姓，人民心中积压对贵族的刻骨仇恨，导致了不可避免的法国大革命，以及随后革命党人对前贵族采取的残暴行为。
书的开卷语：
It was the best of times,
it was the worst of times,
it was the age of wisdom,
it was the age of foolishness,
it was the epoch of belief,
it was the epoch of incredulity,
it was the season of Light,
it was the season of Darkness,
it was the spring of hope,
it was the winter of despair,
已经成为文学史中的经典名句。同样经典的还有本书最后，雪尼‧卡顿（Sydney Carton）走上断头台之前回忆说：
It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done; it is a far, far better rest that I go to than I have ever known.
我现在做的远比我所做过的一切都美好；我将获得的休息远比我所知道的一切都甜蜜。
