Dombey and Son marks an interesting departure from Dicken' preceding works in that he places his story at a higher social level than in his previous novels. Here, for the first time, the author displays his concern with, and sympathy for, the upper middle classes and aristocracy. The result is a felicitous presentation of moving drama played against a richly textured background of social and material well-being.
