About the book

Charles Dickens's Dombey and Son centres on the wealthy businessman Paul Dombey, whose greatest ambition is for his young son to inherit and continue the family firm. His daughter Florence, despite loving him deeply, receives little affection because Dombey considers her unimportant to his plans. When tragedy destroys his expectations, Dombey's pride and emotional coldness gradually bring further suffering to his family and business. Dickens combines family drama with social criticism, exploring pride, parental love, marriage, money and the possibility of redemption.
