He was an orphan, Oliver twist was born in a workhouse and his mother died after giving birth to him. But the nurse argued that she was found dead the night before. He was sent tho a branch workhouse for juvenile offenders were he really suffered. He lived the days and nights with the only thing he has, an empty stomach
