About the book

Charles Dickens's Our Mutual Friend begins with a mysterious inheritance left to John Harmon, who is believed to have drowned before claiming his fortune. The money instead passes to the kindly Boffins, drawing a large cast of characters into schemes involving wealth, identity and social advancement. The novel moves between London's wealthy households and its poorest districts, linking stories of love, greed and deception. Dickens uses the recurring imagery of money, dust and the River Thames to examine materialism, class and the ways wealth can alter human relationships.
