With a tone that is at once satirical and deeply empathetic, Dickens constructs a world where redemption and love strive to flourish against a backdrop of profound societal decay. This enduring work argues for compassion and exposes the hypocrisies of a rigid class structure, making it a timeless piece of literary fiction.
