More about the book
The narrative follows orphan Oliver Twist, who escapes a grim workhouse life and ventures to London, where he encounters a gang of young pickpockets led by the cunning Fagin. Dickens presents a stark, unromantic view of crime and the harsh realities faced by orphans in 19th-century London, addressing themes such as child labor and societal hypocrisy. The novel draws inspiration from real-life accounts, including that of Robert Blincoe, and serves as an early social critique, echoing literary works like Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress.
