Originally published as a serial from 1855 to 1857, Dickens's novel Little Dorrit tells the story of Amy Dorrit, the youngest child of her family born and raised in a debtors prison whose life is changed when she meets Arthur Clennam, returning home from a 20-year absence.
Little Dorrit heavily criticises societal shortcomings of the time, in particular the existence of debtors prisons-where Dickens's own father was incarcerated.
