‘And O there are days in this life, worth life and worth death.’
Famed for being Dickens’s last completed novel, Our Mutual Friend is a sophisticated social analysis and damning satire of wealth, and the greed and corruption it can bring.
First published between 1864 and 1865, Our Mutual Friend revolves around the inheritance of a large fortune left by John Harmon Sr., owner of a huge estate. Once John passes, his wealth is left to his son, but only under one condition: that he marries Miss Bella Wilfer, a shallow young woman preoccupied with money. However, Harmon’s son doesn’t appear to inherit his fortune – rather, a body is mysteriously found washed away in the Thames. What ensues is a ghastly battle for money and social standing, and a sobering illustration of the consequences of granting social status more power than personal morality in the pursuit of happiness. With complex plot lines and unforgettable characters, Our Mutual Friend easily establishes itself as a timeless classic. This audiobook edition is expertly narrated by Samuel West.
Charles Dickens (1812 – 1870) was an English writer and social critic. He is regarded by many as the greatest novelist of the Victorian era. His works enjoyed unprecedented popularity during his lifetime and, by the twentieth century, critics and scholars had recognized him as a literary genius. His novels and short stories are widely read, performed and adapted today.
