Jack Dawkins, once known as the Artful Dodger in the streets of London, was sent to Australia on a prison ship when he was little more than a boy. Now he has returned to find that London has changed while the boy has turned into a man. With few prospects provided by his criminal past and having developed mannerisms that allow him to move amongst a higher strata of society, Jack turns his back on the streets that would have primed him as a successor to the murderer, Bill Sikes, and quickly remodels himself as a gentleman thief. New acquaintances and a series of chance encounters, including one with his old friend Oliver, create complications as remnants of his past come back to plague him. Jack is forced to struggle for a balance between his new life and memories that haunt him with visions of the derelict tavern where Nancy used to sing.

In Charles Dickens' immortal classic OLIVER TWIST, the young hero was met on a London street corner by the Artful Dodger, whose real name is Jack Dawkins. Dodger took Oliver to his friend Fagin, who took him in hand and tried to make Oliver one of his boys. But once Dickens was finished with Dodger's part of the story, the author deported him. The Further Adventures and Life of Jack Dawkins begins on Jack's day of deportation to the United States. Upon seeing Boston harbor, Jack decides he should leave his street ways back in London and try to start a totally new life in the States. However, some of Jack's past is also part of his future, and dangerous enemies resurface to devastating results. In the adventures that follow Jack struggles to balance the gentlemanly ways of Jack Dawkins with the street-wise antics of the Artful Dodger. His greatest adventure, falling in love, also proves to be the most dangerous of them all.

'Weston deftly interweaves fact with fiction to create a wonderfully picaresque extravaganza.' Daily Mail 'David Weston is wondrously inventive but faithful to the character's origins. He has an uncanny grasp of time and place, writes with fluent wit and excitement and must not end the story with this latest thrilling volume.' Robert Hardy 'A delightful Dickensian pastiche which will definitely have the readers clamouring for more.' Mail on Sunday 'The Artful Dodger's story needed telling and David Weston has told it in a wonderfully engaging way.' Julian Fellowes DODGER TREADS THE BOARDS is a meticulously researched novel in which Jack Dawkins, aka The Artful Dodger, becomes the servant of Ira Aldridge, the African Roscius, the first black actor to play Othello. Using his unique theatrical knowledge, Weston tells the little-known story of Aldridge's ill-fated appearances at Covent Garden, blending historical figures with favourite Dickensian characters. Dickens himself, Macready, Thackeray, Browning, and the young Victoria, make their appearances, together with Newman Noggs, Inspector Bucket, and Vincent Crummles and the Infant Phenomenon, not forgetting the supposed ghost of Fagin. The mid-section of the book is devoted to an imagined journey to Russia where Jack is befriended by Pushkin, meets his long-lost mother and discovers the true identity of his father. On his return to London Oliver Twist makes an unexpected appearance before Jack rejoins the Roscius on a barnstorming tour of Ireland. The story is told with pace, excitement and humour in Weston's inimitable style.

In een van Dickens‘ bekendste romans volgen we het weesjongetje Oliver Twist. Hij heeft het niet makkelijk: hij belandt eerst in een weeshuis en daarna in een werkhuis, waar hij hard moet werken en weinig eten krijgt. Later wordt hij zelfs lid van een zakkenrollersbende. Dickens schreef de roman als aanklacht tegen de manier waarop veel kinderen werden behandeld in de Victoriaanse tijd. Het verhaal van Oliver Twist, die via de ontberingen van het werkhuis in de criminaliteit belandt, was in Dickens‘ tijd aan de orde van de dag. Oliver Twist is vele malen bewerkt tot films, en met name de musicalbewerking Oliver! is zeer beroemd. Charles Dickens (1812-70) is een van de grote namen in de Britse literatuur. Zijn boeken zijn sinds zijn leven voortdurend gelezen en gepubliceerd, terwijl het werk doorgaat op het gebied van film, televisie en theater. Als auteur schreef Dickens met humor over hoe de Engelse industrialisatie vaak gruwelijke menselijke gevolgen kent, en hij heeft in zijn werken een bijzonder oog voor de armen, vooral kinderen. Verschillende van zijn protagonisten zijn kinderen, zoals Oliver Twist, David Copperfield en kleine Dorrit. Naast grote, kleurrijke romans schreef hij kort proza en toneelstukken, reisboeken en kinderboeken.
