Description
Charles Dickens's great novel of urban poverty, institutional cruelty, and the indomitable resilience of a child who refuses to be destroyed by the system designed to break him—presented in this beautifully produced hardback Select Classics edition—remains as powerful, as moving, and as politically relevant as when it first appeared in serial form. Essential reading for every student of Victorian literature and every reader ready to encounter the greatest social novelist in the English tradition at the full height of his moral and narrative powers. An enduring masterwork.
