A powerful exploration of wealth, corruption, and the ties that bind in Victorian London. Our Mutual Friend, one of BBC's 100 Novels That Shaped Our World, showcases Dickens's mastery of social commentary and intricate plotting. This complete and unabridged edition from Macmillan Collector's Library features stunning cloth binding, gold foiled edges, a ribbon marker, and original illustrations by Marcus Stone. An afterword by Lucinda Dickens Hawksley provides additional insights into this classic work of English literature. When his estranged son, John Harmon, is presumed dead, a wealthy dust collector's fortune passes to his servants, Mr. and Mrs. Boffin. They take in Bella Wilfer, the young woman Harmon was to marry as a condition of his inheritance. The Boffins hire the secretive John Rokesmith as Mr. Boffin's secretary, but questions arise about Rokesmith's true identity and his interest in Bella. Through a sprawling cast of characters and interweaving plots, Dickens exposes the corrupting influence of money and the complexities of family, class, and status in 19th-century British society.
