“Little Dorrit” by Charles Dickens is a tale that weaves together the lives of its richly drawn characters with the intricacies of Victorian society. At its heart is Amy Dorrit, a young woman born in the Marshalsea debtors’ prison, who embodies resilience and kindness. As she navigates the complexities of her family’s fortunes and misfortunes, Dickens masterfully explores themes of poverty, wealth, and social justice. This novel, with its vivid descriptions and unforgettable characters, left me pondering the true meaning of freedom and compassion long after I turned the last page.
I only ask to be free. The butterflies are free.
