Pikku Dorrit I by Charles Dickens

"Pikku Dorrit I" by Charles Dickens is a novel published in serial form between 1855 and 1857. Amy Dorrit, born and raised in London's Marshalsea debtors' prison, captures the attention of Arthur Clennam upon his return from twenty years abroad. As Arthur investigates a mysterious message from his dying father, he becomes drawn into Little Dorrit's world. The story satirizes British society's failures—debtors' prisons, bureaucratic paralysis, and rigid class divisions—while following characters whose lives transform when long-lost fortune liberates the Dorrit family from poverty.
