Bleak House is one of Charles Dickens’s major novels, a vast and darkly comic portrait of Victorian England centred on the long-running legal case of Jarndyce and Jarndyce. Moving between the Court of Chancery, aristocratic households, London streets and the lives of the poor, the novel is both a social satire and a mystery of inheritance, secrecy and moral corruption.
