Overview

With a cast of characters that covers the whole spectrum of London life, from the grotesque nouveax riches Veneerings to the poverty-stricken Betty Higden, Dickens weaves a tapestry of tales that are by turns funny, moving the and tragic. It is both a powerful satire on the corrupting power of wealth and a richly comic vision of the great city of Dickens’ time.
Originally produced for BBC broadcast by the world’s most talented creators of radio entertainment, this audio presentation of Dicken’s last completed novel is brought magically to life. Wtih a full cast and stirring music, “Our Mutual Friend” is an extraordinary dramatization listeners won’t soon forget.
