From The Podcast

Bleak House by Charles Dickens follows the complex intertwining lives of characters affected by the long-running court case of Jarndyce and Jarndyce. The novel is narrated by Esther Summerson, an orphan raised by the cold, neglectful Miss Barbary. As the story unfolds, readers encounter a wide array of characters, including the kind-hearted John Jarndyce, the ambitious lawyer Tulkinghorn, and the mysterious Lady Dedlock. The case consumes the lives of many, highlighting the inefficiencies and injustices of the legal system. Through rich characterizations and social commentary, Dickens critiques the corruption and moral decay in Victorian society, ultimately illustrating how the relentless pursuit of wealth and status can lead to despair and ruin.
