Book Reviews of Bleak House
Book Review: An entanglement
Summary: 5 Stars
It goes like this
You are introduced to a myriad of characters. These characters, display the full spectrum of the human condition: from wealthy to wretched, from saint to sinner, from wise to simple, from respected to scorned, from arrogant to humble from solid to eccentric...
Yet these characters are not one dimensional. While, their nature remains apparent their behavior twist and turns.
Slowly, as you become acquainted, you become aware of mysteries lurking in their separate backgrounds.
As your knowledge of the characters deepen the mysteries grow. The characters and the mysteries begin to entwine and from the entanglement a story emerges.
A great story, told with Dickens social insights, irascible characters and gentle humor.
Yes, you should read this.
