      This collection of essays by George Bentley explores the themes of work, leisure, and culture in the late 19th century. Bentley argues that the rise of industrial capitalism has created a culture of overwork and stress, which has negative effects on both individual health and social harmony. He advocates for a more balanced approach to work and leisure, and encourages readers to cultivate their intellectual and artistic interests as a means of personal fulfillment.

      Written at the same time as Oliver Twist - indeed the serialized version of the novel referred to Mudfog as the protagonist's home town - The Mudfog Papers lampoons all manner of journalistic and scientific writing of the time and showcases the young Dickens at his satirical best.
