Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Our Mutual Friend" by Charles Dickens is a novel published in 1864–1865. Dickens's final completed work centers on money and its power to shape lives. When heir John Harmon is presumed dead, beautiful Bella Wilfer loses her arranged marriage and fortune. Meanwhile, the illiterate Boffins suddenly inherit wealth, and the Hexam siblings struggle to escape poverty. Through interconnected lives spanning London's social classes, Dickens delivers savage satire and sharp social analysis, exploring themes of identity, greed, and moral transformation in Victorian society.
