Our Mutual Friend - by Charles Dickens Our Mutual Friend is a satiric masterpiece about money. The last novel Dickens completed, and perhaps his most angry, it sounds all the great themes of his later the innocence and venality of the aspiring poor, the hollow pretensions of the nouveau riche, the unfailing power of wealth to corrupt everyone it touches. Among those caught up in the ruthless forces of change in Dickens's London are the archetypal innocent Noddy Boffin, who 'inherits' a dustheap where the trash of the rich is thrown; Silas Wegg, a grotesque, one-legged man with unlimited fantasies of grandeur and power; Mr. Veneering, Member of Parliament, whose house, furnishings, servants, carriage, and baby are all 'bran-new'; and Alfred and Sophronia Lammle, who marry one another because each wrongly believes the other is rich. The social themes of Our Mutual Friend --having to do with the treatment of the poor, education, representative government, even the inheritance laws--are informed and brought into coherence by the underlying presence of the Thames, signifying the perpetual flow of life into death, and acting as agent of retribution and regeneration too, as a kind of river god in fact, in a novel in which no other god is very present.

The book is quite fragile seems to have been left in the sun or just out in the air for a long time and the pages are fragile. The cover is fragile and torn, it’s very brown around the edges I’m afraid upon reading it that it might break the binding. The picture on web sight didn’t show true condition .

there are two important reasons to read this book. It was Dickens last complete novel beore his death in 1870. You will find many characters coming and going, but have no fear, there are three themes to follow; the golden dustman and his wife, and two love stories. The other characters are interesting because Dickens made them so. Call the second reason "a make good." Dickens was criticized by the Jewish community for his depiction of Fagin in Oliver Twist. He did't realize that the characterization would hurt a community. In order to balance the scale, he created the appealing character of Judah Riah, one of the first appealing Jewish characters in english literature.Our Mutual Friend is a long book, but that just makes it more Dickens to love.
