''Little Dorrit'' is a novel by Charles Dickens, originally published in serial form between 1855 and 1857.

Dickens also satirises the stratification of society that results from the British class system. Plot summary Poverty The novel begins in Marseilles "thirty years ago" (c. 1826), with the notor ...
