| Publisher Description: The story of an orphan boy lost in London's underworld serves Dickens to reflect the world of the underworld, misery and social hypocrisy, in a story full of stereotypes, always surpassed by the author's mastery. The central thread, the adventures of Oliver from his beginnings in the most absolute poverty up to his ascent, are intertwined with tangential issues, which are sometimes predominant, since they are essential for the author's purpose: the social denunciation through the description of the London of the time, with its social and moral scourges ... In short, "Oliver Twist" is a story of good and bad, where the jovial, the sentimental, the gloomy and the tragic, with a narrative efficiency that makes that even today readers continue to identify with the characters, situations and criticism posed by the author. |
