Description:
Dickens's last completed novel, now in a new Penguin Classics edition, contains a rich and complex pattern of theme, symbol, comic exuberance, and telling detail. In order to win his inheritance, John Harmon must marry Bella Wilfer, a young woman, about whom he knows nothing. In order to discover her true nature, he must fake his own death and take on a new identity. As the complexities of deceit and concealed identity are exposed, Dickens gives us his most profoundly cynical, yet brilliantly funny, insight into the corruption of wealth on human nature.
