The story follows Amy Dorrit, a young woman who spends her formative years in the Marshalsea prison with her family, who are there due to financial debts. The novel delves into the lives of various characters, including Amy's brother Arthur, who is mistakenly believed to be a criminal, and her friend, the artist Merdle. Through these characters, Dickens critiques the British legal system and societal norms of his time. more
