The Anti-Work Ethic and Narrative Form in Our Mutual Friend by Heidi Hyun-Jin Lim
Endnotes
1 In her book Queer Dickens, Holly Ferneaux provides an extended analysis on the role of bachelors and their nontraditional families in the works of Dickens.
2 See also Laura Fasick’s chapter on Dickens in Professional Men and Domesticity in the Mid-Victorian Novel.
3 That Wrayburn’s “M. R. F.” later accepts Lizzie as his son’s wife is a rather startling instance of Dickensian deus ex machina, and inconsequential to Wrayburn’s earlier wooing of Lizzie.
