Charles Dickens paints a portrait of a prison world in which the shadow of the Marshalsea reaches far beyond its high enclosing walls.

The classic story of Amy Dorrit, who lives much of her life at the Marshalsea prison where her father is imprisoned for debt, earning meager wages at jobs outside the prison walls, including seamstress work for Mrs. Clennam, whose son Arthur takes an interest in her plight.
