This episode is part three of six, from our Charles Dickens mini-series. 

Come with us and transform your bedtime ritual into an opportunity for restful fascination. Journey through the stark London of the 19th century, where challenge meets resilience, and depressing shadows are pierced by a shimmering ray of redemption. A world on the brink of the Industrial Revolution, its alleys choked with the dust of progress, its skies ablaze with the struggles of an emerging class dichotomy. Follow Oliver Twist, a brave boy orphaned at birth and tossed amidst a cruel world, as he defies his circumstances and dares to challenge his destiny. 

Filled with intrigue, heartache, audacity, and hope, the episode beautifully highlights the stark contrast between the howling harshness and the gentle humanity encompassing Oliver’s journey. With our vivid narration, you'll explore the grimy corners of Dickens' literary landscape, brimming with his sharp wit, and experience first-hand the unyielding spirit of resilience against despair. 

So, unwrap this gift from the annals of literature as part of your relaxation ritual, and allow the soothing strains of Dickens' words to embolden your dreams.
