A review by bibliotequeish
Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens

4.0

Oliver Twist is the perfect example of innocence. He is simply trying to get by without making a splash, yet life knocks him down time and time again.

An orphan from birth Oliver relies on the kindness of strangers, and his all too trusting nature gets him into trouble. This book can be very frustrating, how these adults could take advantage of a small boy, for so long.

In typical Dickens fashion this book deals heavily with social class and the hierarchy within each group, from the upper crust, to the lowest of the low.
