Little Dorrit
"Mała Dorrit "
This novel includes an introduction and notes by Peter Preston, University of Nottingham, with Illustrations by Hablot K. Browne (Phiz). Little Dorrit is a classic tale of imprisonment, both literal and metaphorical, while Dickens` working title for the novel, "Nobody`s Fault", highlights its concern with personal responsibility in private and public life. Dickens` childhood experiences inform the vivid scenes in Marshalsea debtor`s prison, while his adult perceptions of governmental failures
shape his satirical picture of the Circumlocution Office. The novel`s range of characters - the honest, the crooked, the selfish and the self-denying - offers a portrait of society about whose values Dickens had profound doubts.
