Please, sir, I want some more - perhaps the most famous line from any Dickens novel. In this short course, we shall read and discuss Oliver Twist, using the Penguin Classics edition (2003). This is the first critical edition to use the original serial text of 1837-9, and thus we shall experience the story as it appeared in monthly parts to its first readers.
There is no need to read the book before the course begins.
Please buy this edition: Charles Dickens Oliver Twist (Penguin Classics edition, 2003) ISBN 978-0-141-43974-7
