Overdrukken

by Charles Dickens

Deze verzameling journalistieke artikelen, oorspronkelijk gepubliceerd in 1861, biedt een inkijk in de scherpe observaties en sociale kritiek van Charles Dickens. De essays behandelen een breed scala aan onderwerpen, van armoede en misdaad in Londen tot de werking van het rechtssysteem en de maatschappelijke impact van innovaties. Dickens' karakteristieke humor en satire doorschijnen in veel van de stukken, die een kritisch licht werpen op de sociale ongelijkheid en de maatschappelijke problemen van zijn tijd. 'Overdrukken' biedt waardevolle inzichten in de intellectuele en sociale context van Dickens' tijd, evenals in zijn schrijfproces en zijn preoccupaties.
