At the centre of Bleak House is a long-running legal case, Jarndyce and Jarndyce, which came about because someone wrote several conflicting wills. Dickens uses this case to satirise the English judicial system. Though the legal profession criticised Dickens' satire as exaggerated, this novel helped support a judicial reform movement, which culminated in the enactment of legal reform in the 1870s

Autorenporträt
Charles Dickens (1812-1870) fue un célebre novelista y crítico social inglés, ampliamente considerado como uno de los más grandes escritores de la época victoriana. Nacido en Portsmouth, Inglaterra, Dickens vivió una infancia difícil, marcada por las penurias económicas, que más tarde influyeron en gran parte de sus escritos. Dickens saltó a la fama con sus novelas por entregas y se hizo famoso por su habilidad para combinar el humor, una aguda observación social y unos personajes profundamente humanos. Sus obras arrojan luz sobre las luchas de los pobres, los defectos de los sistemas institucionales y las grandes disparidades entre las clases sociales en la Inglaterra del siglo XIX. Hoy en día, Dickens es célebre no sólo por sus apasionantes relatos, sino también por su perdurable impacto en la literatura y la sociedad.
