Focusing on the complex relationships and dark themes, the unfinished narrative centers on John Jasper, an opium-addicted choirmaster entangled in a love triangle involving his nephew's fiancée, Rosa Bud, and her suitor, Neville Landless. Initially published in 1870, the novel remains incomplete due to Dickens's death, leading to various attempts by other authors to finish it. This new edition includes an introductory chapter from G.K. Chesterton, highlighting Dickens's enduring influence as a preeminent Victorian novelist.
