The Life and Adventures of Martin Chuzzlewit (Martin Chuzzlewit) was serialized between 1843 and 1844, and is considered to be one of Charles Dickens’s last picaresque novels. Raised by his grandfather and namesake, Martin Chuzzlewit is disinherited after revealing his love for his nursemaid, Mary. With no fortune, Martin apprentices himself to the greedy architect Seth Pecksniff and befriends Tom Pinch.
Although Dickens considered Martin Chuzzlewit his best work, it was one of his least popular novels with disappointing early sales leading Dickens to send his title character to America in an attempt to boost overseas interest.
