About
A gripping portrayal of London's dark criminal underbelly, this classic novel is scathing in its indictment of a cruel society and pervaded by an unforgettable sense of threat and mystery.
The story of Oliver Twist—orphaned, and set upon by evil and adversity from his first breath—shocked readers when it was published. After running away from the workhouse and pompous beadle Mr. Bumble, Oliver finds himself lured into a den of thieves peopled by vivid and memorable characters—the Artful Dodger, vicious burglar Bill Sikes, his dog Bull's Eye, and prostitute Nancy, all watched over by cunning master-thief Fagin. With Oliver Twist, Charles Dickens created an entirely new kind of fiction, scathing in its indictment of a cruel society, and pervaded by an unforgettable sense of threat and mystery.
