Resumen
"Bleak House" by Charles Dickens is a novel published between 1852 and 1853. At its center lies Jarndyce and Jarndyce, an endless legal case in the Court of Chancery involving conflicting wills. The story follows Esther Summerson, an orphan with a mysterious past, and Lady Dedlock, an aristocrat harboring a dangerous secret. As a lawyer investigates Lady Dedlock's hidden connection to a deceased pauper, multiple lives become entangled in the grinding machinery of the law, leading to revelation, illness, murder, and tragedy in fog-shrouded London.
