Description: | Select Guide Rating As the interminable case of 'Jarndyce and Jarndyce' grinds its way through the Court of Chancery, it draws together a disparate group of people: Ada and Richard Clare, whose inheritance is gradually being devoured by legal costs; Esther Summerson, a ward of court, whose parentage is a source of deepening mystery; the menacing lawyer Tulkinghorn. ''Perhaps his best novel ... when Dickens wrote Bleak House he had grown up'' G. K. Chesterton |
