About this listen

 Born within the confines of Marshalsea Prison for Debtors, Amy—affectionately known as Little Dorrit—dedicates her life to caring for her proud but fallen father, William Dorrit. Her humble existence takes a dramatic turn when she meets Arthur Clennam, setting off a series of events that will not only transform Amys life but also reshape the fortunes of the entire Dorrit family. In Little Dorrit, Charles Dickens masterfully immerses us in a vividly rich tapestry of human experiences, where themes of virtue and vice collide, and the boundaries of strength and weakness blur. With his inspired storytelling, Dickens captivates readers, drawing them into a world filled with unforgettable characters and destinies.Copyright Comedy and Fairy Tales Art Literary History & Criticism Social Sciences
