Collector's Edition Laminated Hardback with Jacket
A starving orphan dares to ask for more-and sets off a chain of events that will thrust him into the darkest corners of London's underworld. Snatched from the workhouse and drawn into a gang of thieves led by the cunning Fagin, he must navigate a world of deception, cruelty, and danger. Yet, amidst the city's shadows, unexpected kindness offers him a glimmer of hope and the chance for a different life. With powerful enemies closing in, his fate hangs in the balance, caught between the grip of corruption and the possibility of redemption.
Exposing the grim realities of poverty, child labor, and the brutal workhouse system, Oliver Twist shocked Victorian readers and fueled social reform. Through its vivid depiction of London's criminal underworld and the exploitation of orphans, it gave a voice to society's most vulnerable. Blending gripping storytelling with scathing social critique, it challenged the era's rigid class structures and moral hypocrisy. More than just a tale of hardship, it remains a powerful testament to resilience, justice, and the fight for a better world.
