Description

Martin Chuzzlewit by Charles Dickens

Young Martin Chuzzlewit, a careless lad who is scorned by his tough and upright old grandfather, travels to America to seek his fortune. Dickens’s satiric vision of America as a place full of criminals and disease alienated many of his American fans, but Martin survives his American ordeal and returns to England. He finds his grandfather in thrall to the conniving Pecksniff. In the end, thanks to the wit of the wily old man and to Martin’s inherent goodness, all is well: the evil are punished, the virtuous rewarded, and Dickens’s usual wit and colourful cast of characters are much in evidence. Dickens pronounced Martin Chuzzlewit one of his favourites among his novels.
