La Petite Dorrit

Original title: Little Dorrit (English)

Summary

La Petite Dorrit (Little Dorrit), onzième roman de Charles Dickens, est le deuxième d'une série de trois romans politiques et sociaux, publié en feuilletons mensuels, vingt numéros en dix-neuf publications, de décembre 1855 à juin 1857 par Bradbury and Evans. C'est le plus politique des romans de Dickens et aussi celui dont la structure est la plus symbolique : il est en effet divisé en deux livres, le premier intitulé « Pauvreté » et le second « Richesse », chacun comptant dix numéros parus au prix de 1 shilling, la dernière livraison en ayant réuni deux. Ce livre emploie tels quels les termes injurieux, raciaux et autres, de son époque ; le Guide du livre explique ces mots là où ils apparaissent.
