Review Oliver Twist (A Novel by Charles Dickens)

June 10, 2019


He is an ordinary child, but, so many people want his life. Why? What is the secret behind his name? Oliver Twist. 

Well, hi peeps! Welcome

This review is a novel that is perhaps the most famous of the many works by Dickens. Charles Dickens. It tells about someone who was born in a shelter for the homeless, then sold to a coffin maker. Thinking that life in his world during that time was very dark because of the torture and insults that kept coming to him, so he decided to find a bright path by fleeing to the British capital. Unfortunately, there he met another misery.

He was picked up and forced to join a gang of thieves by someone named Fagin. Oliver was involved in a theft case twice, and he always got caught. Dickens tries to describe the state of a country in a particular year in the story, England in the early 1800s. So this is one of the reasons why Literature is always interesting, because in some cases, to produce great work, deep research is needed. At least, in my opinion.
Furthermore, in the midst of the dark world in the story because it is filled with evil characters as an impact of financial conditions and other factors perhaps, he knows what he is writing, and what he has to write. Dickens presents the protagonist figures for balancing the stories.
In addition, here Dickens shows his skill in building situations in every part, whether tense, sad, or a bliss of happiness with simple words. Many messages have been sent by Dickens implicitly, but as many as that explicit messages are scattered.
Still in my opinion, Oliver Twist probably is one of the most popular children’s stories in the whole world. And now it is present in the form of a pocket book. So that should be one solution to increase interest in reading, beside it’s thinner than the original one, the way they deliver the story is very simple. ***
