Dombey and Son (Collector's Edition) (Laminated Hardback with Jacket)

Collector's Edition Laminated Hardback with Jacket A powerful London merchant, proud and cold-hearted Mr. Dombey dreams of building a business dynasty, placing all his hopes on his frail son while neglecting his devoted daughter, Florence. As fate takes unexpected turns, the family's fortunes shift, unraveling secrets, betrayals, and long-held grievances. Through lavish cityscapes and stormy seas, the novel weaves a tale of ambition, loss, and the human longing for love and connection. Dickens masterfully explores the consequences of unchecked pride and the enduring strength of the heart.A groundbreaking critique of industrialization and social class, Dombey and Son captures the shifting landscape of 19th-century Britain with remarkable depth. Dickens explores the consequences of ruthless capitalism, the fragility of human connections, and the role of women in a male-dominated world. The novel's vivid depiction of the expanding railway system reflects both progress and destruction, symbolizing the relentless march of time. With its richly drawn characters and social insight, it remains a powerful commentary on ambition, family, and the cost of power.
