This guidebook examines Dickens' novel within its literary and cultural contexts providing an ideal orientation in the novel, its reception history and the critical material which surrounds it.

With its sustained social criticism and complex construction, Charles Dickens's Bleak House (1853) is considered by many critics to be Dickens's most remarkable novel. Janice Allan:

• discusses key passages of the text, which are reprinted and fully annotated for ease of use
• includes cross-references throughout, making illuminating connections between the text, contexts and interpretations of the novel
