“There’s no writing against such power as this—one has no chance.”

William Makepeace Thackeray

Dombey and Son is vintage Dickens and explores the classic themes of betrayal, cruelty, and deceit, with dysfunctional relationships painted against a backdrop of social unrest in industrialized London. Paul Dombey, a shipping magnate, yearns for a son to carry on the family name and business. But when his sickly boy dies at a young age, Dombey grows ever more resentful of his healthy daughter, further driving them apart and leading to the callous man’s downfall.
