Dickens's classic examination of greed and hypocrisy, by turns disturbing and hilarious. The varying forms of the selfish Chuzzlewits are mercilessly dissected by Dickens, as he tells of their relentless in-fighting and ruthless pursuit of wealth. Young Martin's comic odyssey to the New World; the naive Tom Pinch's rite of passage from innocence to enlightenment; the smooth scheming of the arch-hypocrite Pecksniff; the grotesque self-love of Mrs Gamp; the increasingly-desperate machinations of murderous Jonas Chuzzlewit; all are portrayed with a typically Dickensian flair for characterisation. The most comprehensive paperback edition available, with original illustrations, introductions, notes, selected criticism, text summary and chronology of Dickens’s life and times.
