Who wrote Bleak House?

• A. Austen
• B. Dickens
• C. Trollope
• D. Hardy

Answer: (B)

Bleak House is written by Charles Dickens. It appeared in serial form in the early 1850s and is famous for its sprawling narrative that critiques the English legal system, especially the Jarndyce and Jarndyce case. Dickens combines social commentary with vivid characters and urban life, a hallmark of his work, to expose how institutions affect real people. The other authors you see—Austen, Trollope, and Hardy—wrote in different styles and on different themes, not the specific blend that defines Bleak House. Dickens’s focus on society, class, and bureaucracy in a London setting makes him the correct author.
