Bleak House
Category: Fiction: Literature
Author: Charles Dickens
Copyright/published Year: by Penguin
ISBN: 0141439726
Binding: Paper
Bleak House opens in the twilight of foggy London, where
fog grips the city most densely in the Court of Chancery. The
obscure case of Jarndyce and Jarndyce, in which an inheritance is
gradually devoured by legal costs, the romance of Esther
Summerson and the secrets of her origin, the sleuthing of
Detective Inspector Bucket and the fate of Jo the
crossing-sweeper, these are some of the lives Dickens invokes to
portray London society, rich and poor, as no other novelist has
done. Bleak House, in its atmosphere, symbolism and
magnificent bleak comedy, is often regarded as the best of
Dickens. A "great Victorian novel," it is so inventive in its
competing plots and styles that it eludes interpretation.
