Abstract This paper reviews the classic novel of "Oliver Twist" written by Charles Dickens. The paper presents a tone of hopelessness that shows how Oliver handled many hardships. The paper elaborates on Dickens's use of imagery and setting to convey the harsh day-to-day life that Oliver had to endure.
From the Paper "For the next eight to ten months, Oliver was the victim of a systematic course of treachery and deception" (28). This passage from Charles Dickens's Oliver Twist resembles the horrible environment that Oliver was born into. Nobody cared for Oliver; the workers at the orphanage probably did not even know his name. Oliver lives a predominantly sad life of loss and despair. Dickens uses imagery and setting to create a tone of hopelessness."
