Little Dorrit (Modern Library Classics)by Charles Dickens
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Upon its publication in 1857, Little Dorrit immediately outsold any of Dickenss previous books. The story of William Dorrit, imprisoned for debt in Marshalsea Prison, and his daughter and helpmate, Amy, or Little Dorrit, the novel charts the progress of the Dorrit family from poverty to riches. In his Introduction, David Gates argues that “intensity of imagination is the gift from which Dickenss other great attributes derive: his eye and ear, his near-universal empathy, his ability to entertain both a sense of the ridiculous and a sense of ultimate significance.” This Modern Library Paperback Classic is set from the text of the 1857 edition. Synopsis:Dickens's late masterpiece tells the story of William Dorrit, imprisoned for debt, and his daughter and helpmate, Amy, or Little Dorrit. Taken from the 1857 single-volume Bradbury and Evans edition, this edition includes new endnotes and thirty-nine illustrations by H. K. Browne. About the AuthorDavid Gates is the author of the novels Jernigan and Preston Falls and a collection of short stories, The Wonders of the Invisible World. He writes for Newsweek and teaches at the New School for Social Research and Hunter College. He lives in Brooklyn and in Washington County, New York.
