Bleak House - Charles Dickens - Bog

Bleak House is a novel written by Charles Dickens, first published as a serial between 1852 and 1853. The story is set in London and centres around the legal case of Jarndyce v Jarndyce, which has been dragging on for generations and has left many of the characters in a state of limbo. The novel follows the lives of several characters, including Esther Summerson, who is taken in by John Jarndyce and becomes his ward, and Richard Carstone and Ada Clare, two young people who are caught up in the legal proceedings. Alongside these characters, there are a host of others, including lawyers, businessmen, and members of the aristocracy, all of whom are affected by the case in different ways. The novel is known for its complex plot, which weaves together multiple storylines and themes, including love, family, class, and the corrupting influence of money and power. It is also notable for its vivid descriptions of Victorian London, and for its use of a first-person narrator, Esther Summerson, who provides a unique perspective on the events of the novel. Bleak House is considered one of Dickens' most important works, and is widely regarded as a masterpiece of Victorian literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
