About this book


Charles Dickens published this novel in serial form during the 1830s. It centers on an orphan named Oliver. The boy starts out in a workhouse run by the parish. He later makes his way to London. In the city he comes across both criminals and respectable households. The text describes the routines inside the workhouse. It also shows how children navigated the alleys and markets of the metropolis. Dickens includes details about the legal and social systems that shaped daily existence for the poor.
