Set against London's seedy back street slums, this book is the saga of a workhouse orphan captured and thrust into a thieves' den. Meet some of Dickens' most depraved villains: the incorrigible Artful Dodger, the murderous bully Sikes, and the terrible Fagin. Yet at the heart of this drama is the orphan Oliver, whose unsullied goodness leads him at last to salvation.
