Novel by [[Charles Dickens]], originally published as a serial in ''Bentley's Miscellany'' between 1837 and 1839. Oliver Twist is born an orphan and raised to a young age in a cruel workhouse that exploits the poor. Eventually he escapes the workhouse, only to run afoul of the London underworld. He's recruited into a pickpocket gang, but rescued by a kindly gentlemen who discovers Oliver's real identity and finally finds him a happy home.

The story is one of Dickens' most famous tales and includes some of his most enduring characters, including the crooked Jewish ringleader Fagin and the sly Artful Dodger. Like many of Dickens' works, the novel contains a great deal of social criticism on the way British society at the time treated its poor. Of particular note is the famous scene in which the starving Oliver begs for more gruel from the workhouse cook and is harshly punished.

The story has been adapted many times throughout the years, with some adaptations taking more liberties than others. One in particular, the 1960 [[The Musical|musical]] version, ''[[Oliver!]]''; the 1968 film version was successful enough to win Best Picture that year.

</div>
* [[Domestic Abuser]]: Bill Sikes, to Nancy; Noah Claypole, to Charlotte (to a certain extent, anyway; it's verbal, not physical); Widow Corney, to Mr Bumble; and Mrs Sowerberry, to Mr Sowerberry. The last two probably qualify more as [[Henpecked Husband]], but it's still portrayed as somewhat abusive.

</div>
* [[Greedy Jew]]: Dickens indulges in this trope to the hilt with Fagin, however it does not appear that Dickens ''himself'' held any grudge against Jews. Creating exaggerated characters out of all walks of life was his stock in trade. He also claimed that he only made Fagin Jewish because he legitimately believed that most London "kidsmen" were Jewish. Later in life, Dickens befriended some Jewish people and discovered that they were offended by the character. By way of apology, he want back and excised many references to Fagin's faith.

</div>
* [[Purple Prose]]: The beginning of the first chapter is a very [[Egregious]] example of this. Though not all of the book is [[Purple Prose]], it and [[Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness]] still occur quite often - for example, a face is hardly ever, if at all, called a face - it's always a "countenance".
</div>
** At times, it seems this trope is invoked intentionally, particularly in the scenes where Oliver is clearly getting screwed over, so as to add an extra element of detachment to the text, which makes Oliver's suffering all the more horrifying given the clinical prose.
</div>
** Much of the reason for this, as in Dickens' other work, is that Dickens was paid by the word.

* [[Truth in Television]]: Charles Dickens wrote the book based on many problems that were prevalent in English society at the time.
<div class="menu">
** Fagin was a representative of a type of criminal found in the slums of that day, called a "kidsman." They would train young runaways and "throwaway" children to pick pockets, and pay them for the proceeds, as well as providing a place to sleep. {{spoiler|Oliver Twist himself gets used as what was called a "snakesman"---a young child or very small adult who could insinuate himself into places where an adult could not pass, to open doors and allow older, larger confederates to enter.}}
<ul>
* [[Values Dissonance]]:
</ul>
** The character Fagin who is depicted as a [[Greedy Jew]], something that wasn't that uncommon in Victorian literature, but since [[World War Two]] has caused a lot of controversy with modern readers.
</div>
** On the other hand, Dickens vivid and social descriptions of the problems of the poor people in society were something that actually shocked 19th century readers, who weren't used to hearing about all this hidden atrocities.

* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: Sikes after {{spoiler|murdering Nancy}}; Fagin while awaiting execution.

* [[Race Lift]]: In a recent BBC adaptation with Timothy Spall as Fagin, Nancy is inexplicably turned into a black woman. This is entirely ignoring the fact that Sikes, being a Nineteenth Century [[Politically-Incorrect Villain]], would have nothing to do with black people. This also provides a case of [[Politically-Correct History]].
