520 3 _a"Our Mutual friend is about "money, money, money, and what money can make of life. This theme plays an important ind Dickens´earlier fiction, too, but never does Dickens so concentrate his attention on the power of money as in this last of his completed novels." Thus writes J. Hillis Miller inf afterword to a work that ranks among Dickens´ greatest artistic triumphs. Utilizing in its dramatically contructed plot a mysterious inheritance, a bitter love triangle, and a cast of characters who range from the highgest to the lowest social levels, the novel presents a witty indictment of a society fallen prey to the dehumanizing spirit of a burgeoning commercial age. Dickens´matchless powers iof characterization plumb new depths fo human complexity, his evocation of the physical world is charge with extraordinary poetyic force, in a work that represents, as Edmund Wilson has declared, "His final judgement on the whole Vctorian explot" It is, in the words of J.B. Priestley, "a darka mixture of anger and despair... and astonishningly sustained effort of Dickens´creative imagination". contraportada.
