Oliver Twist: or, The Parish Boy’s Progress

Dickens utilizes Oliver's experiences with workhouses, criminal elements, and incompetent guardians to criticize social injustice and moral pretension. The work, which combines realism and emotional depth, juxtaposes innocence and corruption, revealing how one's environment shapes one's character while also calling for the power of empathy, societal transformation, and human dignity in the face of adversity.
