The plot revolves around the orphan who lives among criminals and finds his way to avoid being corrupted. The Oliver Twist describes the life of an unfortunate and reflects on the cruelty of contemporary society. From the workhouse to a gang of pickpockets to a kind family, Oliver goes through many twists and turns. Having sold off to Mr. Sowerberry, he flees to London on being beaten. Oliver goes to work with Jack Dawkins without knowing the nature of work and is taken to the police when mistaken for a thief. Oliver Twist strives to overcome the miserable conditions of the mid-19th century lower class and searches for his identity. Oliver -meets some other characters named the cruel Fagin, the artful Dodger and the mysterious monks. The story reflects on the travails of underprivileged children in nineteenth-century England. Dickens's sensitivity towards the dilemma of orphans and his portrayals make Oliver Twist a classic of rags-to-riches.

Author's Description

 

Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
Charles Dickens was born on February 7, 1812, in Portsea, England. His parents were middle-class and suffered financially. When Dickens was twelve years old, his family faced financial crisis, which forced him to quit school and work in a shoe polish manufacturing factory. Dickens's mother and siblings eventually joined him. Dickens continued to work at the factory for several months. In the factory the horrific conditions haunted him throughout his life. Dickens never forgot the day when a senior boy in the warehouse took it upon himself to instruct Dickens how to do his work more efficiently.
As a young adult, Dickens worked as a law clerk and later as a journalist. He perceived the darker social conditions of the Industrial Revolution. A collection of semi-fictional sketches entitled Sketches by Boz earned him recognition as a writer. Dickens began to make money from his writing when he published his first novel, The Pickwick Papers in 1836. The Pickwick Papers was hugely popular and Dickens became a literary celebrity at the age of twenty-five. Dickens's themes included wealth and poverty, love and rejection, and the eventual triumph of good over evil. In 1836, Dickens married Catherine Hogarth, but after twenty years of marriage and their ten children, he fell in love with Ellen Ternan, an actress many years his junior. Soon after, Dickens and his wife separated. Dickens remained a prolific writer to the end of his life, and his novels – Great Expectations, A Tale of Two Cities, A Christmas Carol, David Copperfield, and Bleak House – continued to earn critical and popular acclaim. He died of a stroke in 1870, at the age of 58.
