About This Novel
"Dombey and Son" is a novel written by the British writer Charles Dickens. This book is in English and should not be missed by English lovers. "Dombey and Son" is a tightly structured novel written by Dickens. It tells the story of Dombey, a large wholesaler, who is cold and arrogant. Apart from business interests and money transactions, he has no other relationships between people. As a result, his wife and son died in a gloomy and indifferent family environment, and his second wife also left him. Eventually the company collapsed and he felt lonely. The work exposes all the darkness under the capitalist system and shapes Dombey, a typical image of the British bourgeoisie. It not only expresses the author's views on the relationship between money and human nature, but also truly reflects the development of British industrial capitalism in the 1830s and 1940s. In particular, the development of the railway transportation industry occupies an obvious position in the novel. Not only that, the work also describes the vanity and hypocrisy of small citizens and the evils of the marriage system in Victorian England.
