Description:
No other work of Charles Dickens presents so relentless an indictment of the callous greed of Victorian industrial society and its misapplied utilitarian philosophy, as this the most passionate of his novels. With savage bitterness and fierce irony, Dickens exposes the heartlessness of those industries and their masters who imprisoned not only the bodies but also the minds of the helpless workforce.
