About this book
The Adventures of Oliver Twist is the second novel by
English author Charles Dickens. The book was initially published serially from
February 1837 through April 1839 in Bentley’s Miscellany, a periodical edited
by Dickens. In the classic rags-to-riches story, the orphan and escapee Oliver
Twist must find his way through the criminal-filled streets of London.
Summary
Thanks to its colorful cast of characters and gritty portrayal of street life in Victorian London, Dickens’ Oliver Twist has captured readers’ hearts for more than 150 years. Today’s children will love it too. Oliver, a poor orphan, escapes the miserable workhouse where he was born only to fall into the clutches of a band of pickpockets led by the odious Fagin. Yet no amount of cruelty can destroy his purity…and through his goodness, he finds salvation.
First Edition Identification
The novel was first published under the title Oliver Twist, or, The Parish Boy's Progress as a three-volume book by Richard Bentley, owner of Bentley's Miscellany in 1838 (six months before the initial serialization was complete). The first edition of the novel includes 24 steel-engraved plates by George Cruikshank.
