With "Oliver Twist" Dickens built on the famous reputation which he had established with the earlier "Pickwick Papers". The book contains many of the classic Dickensian themes of grinding poverty, the eventual triumph of good in the face of great adversity, the lures of temptation and the terrors of fear, desperation and menace.
The novel contains some of the author's most enduring characters, such as Oliver himself who dares to ask for more, the tyrannical Bumble, the diabolical Fagin, Bill Sykes, Nancy and "the Artful Dodger".
Oliver Twist" is, without doubt, one of the essential Dickens titles for any reader wishing to delve into the works of the great Victorian literary colossus.
