Review:

Originally published serially, this explains the extraordinary length and often disjointed narrative.

An excellent book, you get plenty of humour, plus a lot of pathos, and you can see the start of the Dickensian commentary on the social conditions of the 19th century.

Learned a lot, laughed a lot.

This book made me want to: eat meat pies and roasted potatoes
