c1880 Little Dorrit + Oliver Twist Leather Charles Dickens Antique Fiction Book

Little Dorrit + Oliver Twist
By Charles Dickens
With Eight Illustrations (+ Eight)
Published by Chapman And Hall: London c1880 (undated)
In Leather Bindings With Marbled Text Block - All 16 Illustrations Present

"Little Dorrit and Oliver Twist stand among the most enduring novels of Charles Dickens, bringing together two powerful examinations of Victorian society in a single handsome volume. Little Dorrit follows the life of Amy Dorrit, born and raised within the walls of London's Marshalsea debtors' prison, where her gentle nature and quiet resilience shine against a backdrop of poverty, bureaucracy and social injustice. Through a rich cast of memorable characters, Dickens explores themes of imprisonment—both literal and emotional—while delivering one of his most mature and complex social commentaries.

Oliver Twist, first published more than two decades earlier, remains one of Dickens' most celebrated works. The story of the orphan Oliver's struggle for survival amid the workhouses, criminal underworld and harsh realities of nineteenth-century London introduced readers to some of literature's most unforgettable characters, including Fagin, Bill Sikes and the Artful Dodger. Combining suspense, pathos and sharp criticism of contemporary institutions, the novel helped establish Dickens as one of the foremost voices of the Victorian age.

Published by Chapman and Hall in an attractive leather binding with marbled text block, this undated c1880 edition presents both classic novels in a single substantial volume. Illustrated throughout with the complete complement of sixteen engraved plates—eight for Little Dorrit and eight for Oliver Twist—it offers readers an appealing nineteenth-century edition of two cornerstone works of English literature, retaining all the charm and character of a well-preserved Victorian Dickens collection."
