Bleak House

by Charles Dickens, Norman Page, Hablôt Knight Browne

The protracted Jarndyce and Jarndyce legal case affects various lives, from wards of the court to those in London's slums. Centred on the mystery of Esther Summerson's parentage, the narrative critiques the corruption of the nineteenth-century Court of Chancery.
