Novel by Charles Dickens, published serially in 1852-53 and in book form in 1853. Considered by some critics to be the author's best work, Bleak House is the story of several generations of the Jarndyce family who wait in vain to inherit money from a disputed fortune in the settlement of the lawsuit of Jarndyce v. Jarndyce. It is pointedly critical of England's Court of Chancery, in which cases could drag on through decades of convoluted legal maneuvering. -- The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

内容简介

As the case of Jarndyce vs. Jarndyce—a long and hopeless lawsuit over a disputed will—drags slowly on through the courts, it begins to wear down all those caught in its complicated web. Esther Summerson, an orphan placed in the care of the kind and gentle John Jarndyce at Bleak House, can only watch on as the people she loves are consumed by the proceedings. But when Esther s past comes looking for her, will the discovery of her true identity finally lead her to the answers she has been searching for?
