One of the great novelist’s most popular works, Oliver Twist is also the purest distillation of Dickens’s genius. Like most of Dickens’ work, the book is used to call the public’s attention to various contemporary social evils, including the workhouse, child labour and the recruitment of children as criminals. The novel is full of sarcasm and dark humour, even as it treats its serious subject, revealing the hypocrisies of the time. This tale of the orphan who is reared in a workhouse and runs away to London is a novel of social protest, a morality tale, and a detective story. Oliver Twist presents some of the most sinister characters in Dickens: the master thief, Fagin; the leering Artful Dodger; the murderer, Bill Sikes…along with some of his most sentimental and comical characters. Only Dickens can give us nightmare and daydream together. According to George Orwell, “in Oliver Twist…Dickens attacked English institutions with a ferocity that has never since been approached. Yet he managed to do it without making himself hated, and, more than this, the very people he attacked have welcomed him so completely that he has become a national institution himself.” The novel has been the subject of numerous film and television adaptations, and the basis for a highly successful British musical, Oliver!

Kedves olvasó, ha már kezedben tartasz, elkalauzollak olyan világba, amely számodra is érdekes és felkelt?. Mai társadalmi helyzetünk elég cudar állapotban van, ahol még a faji kül?nb?ztetésénél tartunk és még mindig nem fogadtuk el egymást. Ezért nem is tudunk tovább lépni. Nem tudunk ?sszefogni és kilépni a rengetegbe, az ismeretlenbe, hogy aztán szétszóródjunk újra és benépesítsük az olyan réteget ahol esetleg mással, de ha nem, akkor egymással harcoljunk az új helyekért. K?nyvemet megosztva egy olyan fantázia szemsz?gb?l mutatom be, elképzelt világomat, melyben t?bb dolog rendbe j?tt, de helyette j?tt más, csak, hogy az élet mozogjon. Ha velem tartasz, végén ráj?ssz, lehet van benne logika, fantázia, és realizáció. Ez a világ olyan utakon jár melyben a fajok megbékéltek, elfogadták egymást, de helyette j?ttek a nemi kül?nbségek, melyet az emberek biológiai okokból nem fogadtak el, de akik elfogatták, úgy vélik ez természetes és lehetséges. Ha ódzkodsz a másságtól, óva intelek a t?rténetét?l, de egyben ajánlanám nagy szeretettel, hátha máshogy fogod látni a világot, vagy találsz benne olyan dolgot, darabot mely hiányzott a puzzle-?db?l, és kiegészíti a te kicsiny világodat.
