Beschreibung
"Oliver Twist" was Charles Dickens' second novel, further establishing him as one of England's greatest writers of the 19th century. Set in London in the midst of an industrial revolution, the novel treats issues such as child labor, poverty, and criminal greed. Originally published in serial form and being titled "The Parish Boy's Progress," the book remains popular to readers today, hundreds of years later.
Charles John Huffam Dickens (1812 - 1870) was an English writer and social critic. He created some of the world's best-known fictional characters and is regarded by many as the greatest novelist of the Victorian era. His works enjoyed unprecedented popularity during his lifetime and by the twentieth century critics and scholars had recognised him as a literary genius. His novels and short stories enjoy lasting popularity. Born in Portsmouth, Dickens left school to work in a factory when his father was incarcerated in a debtors' prison. Despite his lack of formal education, he edited a weekly journal for 20 years, wrote 15 novels, five novellas, hundreds of short stories and non-fiction articles, lectured and performed extensively, was an indefatigable letter writer and campaigned vigorously for children's rights, education and other social reforms.
