Bleak House
The Snapshot Classics™ Guide
Huge in scope, it centres around a celebrated court case that goes on for so long that people fall by the wayside, either dead or broken. Esther is the heroine and the ultimately tragic Lady Dedlock a sad victim who did not know she had a living child. It was a scathing indictment on the British legal system but has some wonderfully colourful characters.
ISBN: 978-0-9555201-3-6, 128 x 198mm, paperback, 112 pages. |
