The rollicking adventures of Samuel Pickwick and other members of the Pickwick Club as they travel around the English countryside getting into mischief are recounted in this satirical masterpiece. Brilliantly comic, the book also reveals Dickens’s growing interest in the parliamentary system, lawyers, the Poor Laws, and the ills of debtor’s prisons.
