Charles Dickens was an English writer and social critic. Dombey and Son is a story of Paul Dombey, a heartless London merchant who runs his domestic affairs as he runs his business. In the tight orbit of his daily life there is no room for dealing with emotions because they have no market value. Dombey sees the future of his firm in his son, neglecting his affectionate daughter. He even decides to get rid of her beloved, a lowly clerk. However, Dombey's weakness is his pride, and he falls prey to the treacherous flattery of others.
