Oliver Twist is one of Charles Dickens's most famous novels and a powerful classic of Victorian literature. The story follows Oliver, an orphan born into poverty, as he moves from the cruelty of the workhouse into the dangerous streets of London, where innocence, survival, crime, and compassion collide. Through unforgettable characters such as Fagin, the Artful Dodger, Bill Sikes, and Nancy, the novel exposes the harsh realities of child poverty, social injustice, criminal exploitation, and moral corruption.

Oliver Twist fu il secondo romanzo di Dickens, pubblicato a puntate mensili dal 1837 al 1839. E' una delle opere più famose dello scrittore, primo romanzo inglese ad avere un ragazzo come protagonista e uno dei primi romanzi sociali. L'umorismo feroce con cui Dickens descrive la società inglese, la povertà, l'abuso infantile, l'ipocrisia della cultura fu decisamente una novità.
