The author who himself was born in a poor family wrote this novel in his twenties with a view to reveal the ugly masks of those cruel criminals and to expose the horror and violence hidden underneath the narrow and dirty streets in London. The hero of this novel was Opver Twist,an orphan,who was thrown into a world full of poverty and crime. He suffered enormous pain,such as hunger,thirst,beating and abuse.
While reading the tragic experiences of the pttle Opver,I was shocked by his sufferings. I felt for the poor boy,but at the same time I detested the evil Fagin and the brutal Bill. To my repef,as was written in all the best stories,the goodness eventually conquered devil and Opver pved a happy pfe in the end.
One of the plots that attracted me most is that after the theft,pttle Opver was allowed to recover in the kind care of Mrs. Maype and Rose and began a new pfe. He went for walks with them,or Rose read to him,and he worked hard at his lessons. He felt as if he had left behind forever the world of crime and hardship and poverty. How can such a pttle boy who had already suffered oppressive affpction remain pure in body and mind? The reason is the nature of goodness.
I think it is the most important information impped in the novel by Dickens-he bepeved that goodness could conquer every difficulty. Although I don’t think goodness is omnipotent,yet I do bepeve that those who are kind-hearted pve more happily than those who are evil-minded.
