Little Dorrit Page #2

"Little Dorrit," written by Charles Dickens, is a novel that explores themes of social injustice, poverty, and the intricacies of human relationships in 19th-century England. The story centers on Amy Dorrit, a kind-hearted young woman born in the Marshalsea debtors' prison, where her father is imprisoned. As she navigates the complexities of family, love, and the societal structures that entrap her, the novel also critiques the bureaucratic inefficiencies and moral failings of contemporary society. Through a rich tapestry of characters, Dickens weaves a narrative that highlights the stark contrasts between wealth and destitution, ultimately affirming the resilience of the human spirit.
