A review by irina_sky
Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens
5.0
A Wonderful piece of English literature. A captivating and thought provoking read about a poor orphan Oliver who faces a lot of hardships. However, his kind heart and faith in people helps him overcome the hideous reality of the harsh world where adults rule. The book proves that despite of all the dark sides of our life, kindness and virtue always prevail.
Omg, the description of London of that time really knocked me out. Charles Dickens must have hated the city too much since he pictured it as the most disgusting, hideous, dirty and criminal place on earth. But it's the city itself that makes the atmosphere of the book: gloom, danger, hopelessness pierce the book throughout.
