Summary
Born to an unmarried woman who dies after giving birth, orphan Oliver Twist seems destined to slog through a dismal life in the workhouse. A rebellious cry for more gets Oliver banished, and ultimately lands him on the dismal streets of London. The young outcast finds refuge with Fagin and his band of thieves before fate intervenes and puts Oliver in the hands of a kindly benefactor. It is likely that Dickens's own early youth as a child laborer contributed to the story's development. Oliver Twist has been the subject of countless film and television adaptations.

A story full of twists and turns.
You may struggle at first but keep on reading/listening. This story definitely has a very worth while ending.

Great story. Well told. Well read. Loved it. How could you not love Charles Dickens? He makes English sing and dance.

Some missing text and detail
The final moments of Bill Sykes have been omitted for some reason from chapter 51
