Our Mutual Friend

Серия: "Wordsworth Classics"

With an Introduction and Notes by Deborah Wynne, Chester College. Illustrated by Marcus Stone. "Our Mutual Friend", Dickens'last complete novel, gives one of his most comprehensive and penetrating accounts of Victorian society. Its vision of a culture stifled by materialistic values emerges not just through its central narratives, but through its apparently incidental characters and scenes. The chief of its several plots centres on John Harmon who returns to England as his father's heir. He is believed drowned under suspicious circumstances - a situation convenient to his wish for anonymity until he can evaluate Bella Wilfer whom he must marry to secure his inheritance. The story is filled with colourful characters and incidents - the faded aristocrats and parvenus gathered at the Veneering's dinner table, Betty Higden and her terror of the workhouse and the greedy plottings of Silas Wegg.

Charles Dickens

Animal
El perro es, generalmente, un animal que jamás se venga del castigo que le aplica su amo.
Economía
Era seguro como los impuestos, y no hay nada más seguro que éstos.
He aquí la regla fundamental en los negocios: «Hazlo a los demás, puesto que ellos te lo harán a ti.»
Edad
Cada niño que viene al mundo es más hermoso que el anterior.
Es destino de un viejo solitario que aquellos que le rodean se crean nuevos y distintos y le abandonen.
Espíritu
Hay siempre en el alma humana una pasión por ir a la caza de algo.
Fama
La fama es la amada de todo corazón humano.
Fracaso
Cada fracaso enseña al hombre algo que necesitaba aprender.
Justicia
La caridad empieza en nuestra casa y la justicia en casa del vecino.
Mente
Se buscan todavía la inteligencia y el carácter; en la bolsa de la vida aún hay gran demanda de ellos.
Naturaleza
Un árbol es un vecino muy peligroso en una tormenta.
Trabajo
Donde millones de hombres se arredraron, allí empieza tú a trabajar.
Triunfo
En las cumbres aún hay mucho lugar para los obreros esforzados.
