Oliver Twist was the second novel by Charles Dickens. It follows orphan Oliver from the workhouse where he was raised to London where he meets a juvenile group of pickpockets. The story evolves as Oliver discovers his family history and reunites with what is left of the family. The social symbolism and cruel treatment of orphans is a theme throughout. The recruitment of children for criminal activity and street children is satirized throughout. It has been adapted into musicals and film and remains poignant today.
