New York / Franklin Center Pennsylvania: Oxford University Press / The Franklin Library 1984. Limited Edition. Limited Edition. Near Fine/No Jacket. Phiz Browne Hablot Knight. One of 7500 copies. Spine faded. 1984 Full-Leather. xxx 882 pp. Full red leather with navy blue leather onlays gilt titles and decorations all edges gilt silk moire endpapers ribbon marker bound in. Includes forty illustrations by Phiz and an introduction by Geoffrey Russell. "The Life and Adventures of Martin Chuzzlewit commonly known as Martin Chuzzlewit is a novel by Charles Dickens considered the last of his picaresque novels. It was originally serialised between 1842 and 1844. While he was writing it Dickens told a friend that he thought it was his best work1 but it was one of his least popular novels.2 The late nineteenth century English novelist George Gissing read the novel in February 1888 "for refreshment" but felt that it showed "incomprehensible weakness of story".3 Like nearly all of Dickens's novels Martin Chuzzlewit was first published in monthly instalments. Early sales of the monthly parts were disappointing compared to previous works so Dickens changed the plot to send the title character to the United States.4 This allowed the author to portray the United States which he had visited in 1842 satirically as a near-wilderness with pockets of civilisation filled with deceitful and self-promoting hucksters. The main theme of the novel according to Dickens's preface is selfishness portrayed in a satirical fashion using all the members of the Chuzzlewit family. The novel is also notable for two of Dickens's great villains Seth Pecksniff and Jonas Chuzzlewit. It is dedicated to Angela Georgina Burdett-Coutts a friend of Dickens's.
