Our Mutual Friend, Version 2

Our Mutual Friend, Version 2

by Charles Dickens

Our Mutual Friend, Dickens's last completed novel, is a complex and multifaceted exploration of Victorian London society. The story revolves around the unexpected inheritance of John Harmon, a young man whose death is presumed. This sets in motion a chain of events that exposes the greed, hypocrisy, and social injustices of the time. Through a cast of unforgettable characters, Dickens satirizes the pursuit of wealth, the corrupting power of money, and the complexities of love and identity.
