Notes
Description
A satire on the English Civil Service, with descriptions of prison life. First published in 1857.
Description
Little Dorrit grows up in Marshalsea prison, where her father is confined for his debts, and she helps to feed the family with her needlework until her father receives an inheritance when she is in her teens, and more problems ensue.
Description
Set in England in the mid 1800s, this novel portrays a prison-world in which the shadow of the Marshalsea reaches from the rack-rented Bleeding Heart Yard to the high society of Harley Street and Hampton Court.
