"Dombey and Son" by Charles Dickens is a novel published in monthly parts between 1846 and 1848. It follows Paul Dombey, a wealthy shipping firm owner obsessed with having a son to inherit his business, who coldly neglects his devoted daughter Florence. When tragedy strikes and his dreams crumble, Dombey's pride leads him through a loveless second marriage, betrayal, and family ruin. The story explores themes of parental rejection, social class, and the destructive nature of pride in Victorian England.
