Set against the backdrop of the Marshalsea prison for debtors, the story follows Amy Dorrit, who has spent her life within its walls. Arthur Clennam returns to London after two decades and encounters Amy, sparking a journey of renewal. Dickens critiques societal and governmental flaws, particularly the inhumane treatment of debtors and the inefficacy of institutions like the fictional "Aversion Office." Through his characters and their struggles, he satirizes the rigid British class system and exposes the harsh realities of life for the impoverished.
