Write about the fate of Oliver Twist

The English realist writer C. Dickens in the novel "Oliver Twist" fully reveals the problem of the poor condition of the masses of people. All that was in the story - the hero, the child and the people around him.


The hero of the novel, Oliver, was born in a workhouse, which initially refers him to the class of disadvantaged people. In the workhouses of the 1930s – 1940s, according to English law, such a regime was established that turned them into a "Bastille for the poor." Stunted, exhausted, eternally hungry children grow up in them, not living, but trying to survive. The fate of such weak children as Oliver was sealed, and only a miracle could save them;


Any attempt to protest is cruelly suppressed and punished by educators. "The Shrew" Oliver, for example, is becoming one of the candidates for the gallows, because he dared to ask for supplements of liquid gruel. He is subjected to solitary confinement, cruel flogging, and then trying to give a despotic chimney sweep who has already scored the death of several boys, and the undertaker.


In the second part of the novel, Oliver, fleeing from his master, receives new life lessons in London, where he is surrounded by criminals - a gang of thieves. The young Oliver is now raised by the purchase of stolen goods Feigin, the robber Saika, the prostitute Nancy and the sinister "gentleman" Monks. They are trying to get the boy to engage in thief fishing, but Oliver was strong in nature and refused to participate in vile projects. However, brought up by the criminal world, Nancy has kept a warm soul, she protects and helps Oliver.


Dickens was conscious of himself as a preaching writer, so he somewhat idealized his heroes. So, Oliver Twist is kind, truthful, virtuous, and no dirt of the world around him can stain him. And the kind people who meet on his way are a kind of reward to the boy for his devotion. So Mr. Brownlow is the first unselfish savior of the orphan, whom Oliver later fell in love with all his heart.
