stapilus 's review for:

Our Mutual Friend by Charles Dickens
5.0

The last of Dickens' I read, Bleak House, could have been John Grisham a century and a half earlier. Our Mutual Friend, about a largish group of people, could have been a group writing project byu Occupy Wall Street ... a century and a half earlier. Some of Dickens' usually smooth narration suffers a bit in the middle and some of the later sections - this was his last completed novel - but it makes its points steadily, piece by piece. Recommended toward the top of the Dickens list.
