书籍简介

《雾都孤儿》是英国作家狄更斯首部社会批判小说。它以雾都伦敦为背景，讲述了孤儿奥利弗悲惨的身世和遭遇。奥利弗从小在孤儿院长大，年仅九岁就在殡仪馆做学徒，因不堪忍受虐待，孤身逃到伦敦，又被窃贼诱骗成为他们的同伙。后来遇到好心人的帮助，加上奥利弗自己追求幸福生活的努力，最终奥利弗查明了身世并过上了快乐幸福的生活。

Dickens had already achieved renown with The Pickwick Papers. With Oliver Twist his reputation was enhanced and strengthened. The novel contains many classic Dickensian themes - grinding poverty, desperation, fear, temptation and the eventual triumph of good in the face of great adversity.

Oliver Twist features some of the author's most enduring characters, such as Oliver himself (who dares to ask for more), the tyrannical Bumble, the diabolical Fagin, the menacing Bill Sikes, Nancy and 'the Artful Dodger'.

For any reader wishing to delve into the works of the great Victorian literary colossus, Oliver Twist is, without doubt, an essential title.

作者简介

查尔斯狄更斯（1812―1870）

19世纪英国最伟大的小说家。他主要描写生活在英国社会底层人的生活，揭露上层社会和资产阶级的虚伪、贪婪，深刻反映了当时英国复杂的社会现实，同时也以理想主义和浪漫主义情怀讴歌了人性的真善美，被后世奉为“召唤人们回到欢笑和仁爱中来的明灯”。马克思把他和萨克雷等称誉为英国的“一批杰出的小说家”。

他一生著述颇丰，代表作有《双城记》《大卫科波菲尔》《小杜丽》《远大前程》《雾都孤儿》《艰难时世》《荒凉山庄》等。
