Acerca de este libro

Our Mutual Friend (written in the years 1864–65) is the last novel completed by Charles Dickens and is in many ways one of his most sophisticated works, combining deep psychological insight with rich social analysis. At one level it centres on, in the words of critic J. Hillis Miller, "money, money, money, and what money can make of life" but in a deeper sense it's also about 'human values'.

Dickens set his final full-scale masterpiece in 1860s London, creating dozens of memorable characters. All the themes that engaged him as a mature writer are featured here: love and hate, wealth and poverty, honesty and duplicity, and the formation and reformation of identity.
