Our Mutual Friend
of Charles Dickens
Description
A satiric masterpiece about the allure and peril of money, Our Mutual Friend revolves around the inheritance of a dust-heap where the rich throw their trash. When the body of John Harmon, the dust-heapâs expected heir, is found in the Thames, fortunes change hands surprisingly, raising to new heights âNoddyâ Boffin, a low-born but kindly clerk who becomes âthe Golden Dustman.â Charles Dickensâs last complete novel, Our Mutual Friend encompasses the great themes of his earlier works: the pretensions of the nouveaux riches, the ingenuousness of the aspiring poor, and the unfailing power of wealth to corrupt all who crave it. With its flavorful cast of characters and numerous subplots, Our Mutual Friend is one of Dickensâs most complexâand satisfyingânovels.
