Description
An Apple Books Classic edition. <br> Charles Dickens’ final completed novel is a satirical masterpiece of greed, romance, and the possibility of redemption even in London’s filthiest corners. <br> A body pulled from the Thames is identified as John Harmon, heir to a vast fortune. His inheritance passes to the kindly Boffins and complicates life for Bella Wilfer, who was contracted to marry Harmon. As opportunists and schemers circle, an enigmatic stranger named John Rokesmith enters the Boffins’ household—and he’s got a lot of questions. <br> As fortunes shift and secrets pile up, Dickens maps a vivid, comic Victorian London where money shapes every relationship and no one is quite what they seem. Atmospheric and intricate, Our Mutual Friend reveals how greed corrupts and kindness redeems in equal measure.
