Charles Dickens' novel "Oliver Twist" first appeared in 1837, initially published in serialized form before being released as a complete book. The story revolves around the life of Oliver Twist, an orphan born in a workhouse in early 19th century England.
Highlight: The novel's famous line, "Please, sir, I want some more," encapsulates the desperation of workhouse children and became an iconic representation of Victorian-era poverty.
Through Oliver's experiences, Dickens sheds light on several social issues:
Example: The character of Fagin, the leader of the pickpocket gang, represents the exploitation of children by adults in the criminal world.
"Oliver Twist" is considered one of Dickens' most important works and a classic of English literature:
Quote: "Oliver Twist has asked for more!" This line from the novel became a powerful indictment of the inadequate care provided to workhouse children.
The novel's vivid portrayal of Victorian London and its memorable characters have ensured its enduring popularity, making it a cornerstone of Charles Dickens' literary legacy.
