After enduring years of brutal treatment, Oliver runs away to London, where he falls in with a band of child pickpockets led by the villainous Fagin. His foray into a life of crime soon lands him into the arms of the law, when Oliver's fortunes finally appear to turn as the robbery victim becomes his benefactor. But Fagin isn't about to let his young recruit go so easily, and with vicious thug Bill Sikes among his henchmen, Oliver soon finds himself back in the criminals' lair, with many more travails to face on the torturous road to discovering the truth about his past. In Oliver Twist Dickens exposes the sordid underbelly of Victorian England, where rootless young innocents are at the mercy both of brutal institutions and the corrupting forces that lurk on the streets. -- from publisher. 650 0 $a Orphans $z London $z London $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Criminals $z London $z London $v Fiction. 651 0 $a London (England) $x Social life and customs $y 19th century. 650 7 $a Criminals. $0 (OCoLC)fst00883516. $2 fast 650 7 $a Manners and customs. $0 (OCoLC)fst01007815. $2 fast 650 7 $a Orphans. $0 (OCoLC)fst01048433. $2 fast 651 7 $a England $z London. $0 (OCoLC)fst01204271. $2 fast 648 7 $a 1800 - 1899. $2 fast 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $0 (OCoLC)fst01726640. $2 fast 655 7 $a Fiction. $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787. $2 fast 655 7 $a English fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 2 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20180808033228.0 952 $l DZPB423 $d 20180713034724.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A0F83E42866611E89A2B5A1E97128E48 994 $a C0 $b LVYInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
