For a half-starved orphan boy, horror lurks in the dark slums of London. Pickpockets, hags, and murderers slink through twisted alleyways. Be. hind stand bleak workhouses, prison, and the looming gallows.

In this great masterpiece, Dickens depicts the brutal underworld—and the nightmare of a boy trapped in crime.

The award-winning movie-musical, Oliver!, is based on this famous novel.
