About the book:
Woodpecker brings the complete and unabridged collection of Oliver Twist written by Charles Dickens. The story is about a boy named Oliver Twist orphaned by birth and his life begins in a workhouse. The novel was inspired by Robert Blincoe's account of his childhood spent in a cotton mill.
This is the second novel by Charles Dickens which shocked the readers with its images of poverty, exploitation, and crime. It destroyed the middle-class polemics about criminals and shamed all the pretense of glorifying poverty. Oliver Twist escapes to London only to land in a gang of juvenile pickpockets led by an elderly criminal Fagin.
