Oliver is an orphan living on the dangerous London streets with no one but himself to rely on. Fleeing from poverty and hardship, he falls in with a criminal street gang who will not let him go, however hard he tries to escape. Dickens graphically conjures up the capital’s underworld, full of sex workers, thieves and lost and homeless children, and gives a voice to the disadvantaged and abused.

The serialisation of Oliver Twist began in 1837. Many other novels followed and The Old Curiosity Shop brought Dickens international fame and he became a celebrity in America as well as Britain.
