Charles Dickens
1841
Translated by Alfred Des Essarts
A novel written in the mid-19th century. The book follows the experiences of Kit Nubbles, a young servant, as he navigates his newfound life and relationships in the household of Mr. and Mrs. Garland, all while reflecting on his past and the affections he holds for others. The narrative explores themes of loyalty, love for one's home and family, and the contrast between wealth and poverty through Kit's perspective. The opening of the novel introduces Kit, who has grown attached to the Garland family and considers them his friends. Despite his current comfortable situation, he remains deeply appreciative of his past, particularly his mother and siblings. The text also touches on themes of familial love among the poor, emphasizing the strength of emotional ties even in the absence of material wealth. As Kit embarks on a new journey, he encounters various characters, including an enigmatic gentleman whose motives become pivotal to the unfolding story. The beginning sets the stage for Kit’s inner workings and foreshadows his future adventures.
