Hardback

Description

Part of the Chiltern Classics range. Oliver Twist is a story of a young orphan. His life in the workhouse is lonely and sad. Oliver becomes an apprentice for an undertaker but runs away after he gets into a fight with another apprentice.

When Oliver arrives in London, he meets Jack, also known as the Artful Dodger, who offers him a place to stay with a number of other boys.

Oliver learns that these boys are trained pickpockets.

On an outing, Oliver witnesses the boys take a handkerchief from Mr. Brownlow, an elderly man, which prompts Oliver to run away in fear and confusion.

The elderly man mistakes Oliver’s behaviour for guilt and has him arrested.

However, after learning more about Oliver, Mr. Brownlow realizes his mistake and offers to take care of him at his home. Chiltern are publishers of exquisitely crafted editions of the world’s finest classic literature.

These beautiful books are a perfect mix of tradition and the very latest in printing techniques.
