The part where your brother was acting as Oliver.. Was so funny I laughed a lot🤣🤣 BTW the way you were describing about Oliver Twist was so good and the amount of hard work you put in your videos is just✨.. You deserve a lot🌼
I promise you there is something worse out there than being sad, and that’s being alone and being sad, this book really captures that. Judy Blume--Superfudge
Not to take from the seriousness of the book, but man... your brother 😂😂😂 absolutely cracked me up. He continues to show such dedication to your very lovely cause haha I love it
i’m so loving this series of book “ponderings”. i always feel so enriched with love for literature and knowledge after listening to these. (the intermission got me laughing so loud hahaha huge serotonin release)
I'm just amazed by you, Emma. What an insight, what a way to read, learn and grow from a book! I'm loving to read much more. Thank you for sharing this video! ❤️
What a wonderful video, Emma! The part where you talk about death got me really emotional, ngl. Also, for a book that you didn't enjoy that much, the way you discussed it was so inspiring and meaningful. You're so talented!
This was just amazing to me. So educational, entertaining and informative. I hope, one day, that I will be able to read like you do. :) Please keep up the amazing work!
Emma is so amazing TT You read a lot, go outside, eat healthy foods, put tons of effort into your videos while also doing others productiuve works. Can't relate but very aspiring 💕
Hey Emma, it would be a pleasure if you'd consider creating such kind of theme analysis video on your all time favorite 100 Years of Solitude or Phantom of the Opera or literally any piece of literature that hit on your chords and made you deeply ponder and reflect on some intriguing concept or idea. (●'◡'●)
you'll make sure i fall in love with words, won't you? bless you dear! genuinely.....love you from the bottom of my heart. i used to never read before, not even a page...but after listenin to you, i fell in love with the art. so thank you so much. i wish we meet sometime and talk bout life in general...... bless you :)
Damn! You must had put alot of effort and time into making this video. Always wondered what Oliver Twist was about, but too intimidated by the book to read it. Btw, that brown shirt is beautiful!
Very sombre and soothing lecture:you are in scholarly form!👩🎓I would also treat the novel as a Homeric tale, exemplified in a key passage where the Dodger drags Oliver into the underworld.My compliments to Benjamin for his dedication to his craft, although he strikes me as more Huckleberry Finn than Oliver😀❤️
I can not express how much I enjoyed watching this video. I clicked to watch half now and half later, but I could not stop until the end. Superb, dear Emma.
As someone who cannot abide Dickens, your analysis and wonderfully modulated voice have nearly sold me on giving it another go. That and Ben's heroic performance even whilst you were laughing. You have a brother to be cherished.
I love this vid and I love Benjamin!! He's such a good sport and great brother!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️ PS. Would love you to talk about Jane Eyre. I love that book. It's one of my fave books of all time. 🤗📙🐛💚
My brain: Don't do it! It's 2 am and plus you haven't even read Oliver Twist yet... watch the video later!! Also me: Hahaha comfy Emmie video go brrrrr (On a serious note I love this lecture style video especially since I got to learn about what kind of lens you can read this book at! I'm a pretty casual reader so sometimes I feel like I have shallow interpretations of books so this is such a helpful video on how to analyze! Anyways, definitely gonna revisit this when I finally read Oliver Twist! Great video!!)
Your careful reading of Oliver Twist touches on so many issues re. children and their fate in times of geopolitical + economic crisis. *Kith: The Riddle of Childscape* : this ground-breaking book by Jay Griffith was reviewed by Mary Beard in 2011 for The Guardian (online). See also the blog Humanum, *The Unsurpassable Significance of the Child* by D.C. Schindler. Francine Prose's *Anne Frank, The Book, The Life, The Afterlife* suggests that Anne's Diaries may be the only record we have of a child writing about herself as she moves into adolescence. The child in the adult Dickens never forgot his days in the blacking factory.
Great video Emma! As always 💕 Oh and please tell Ben he definitely deserves the Triple Crown of Acting for this one 🏆 haha! He's such a cutie and a great brother, supporting you in more ways than one. I envy your closeness 💖
i actually *am* studying this in school so this is not only interesting and beautifully done but also helpful ! thank you so much, your videos are always amazing and you’re my absolute favorite booktuber
Not related to this video, but I finished Phantom of the Opera two days ago and really enjoyed it! Thank you for talking about it so much on your channel, I don't think I would have picked it up on my own. It truly was a ride, especially since I had somehow managed to never come into contact with the story before, so I went in completely blind. 🤣
I was so blown away by how beautiful the first 30 seconds were 😍😌😌 so peaceful, a calm nice voice. You should make audiobooks or something, or whatever i would listen to your voice like that anywhere
Wonderful review!I haven’t read Oliver Twist in years, but you’ve made me want to take it up again and re-read it. I recently discovered your channel, but I really love it. Thank you for all you do.
Oliver twist is such a good book . You should definitely read it😍😍. It definitely discusses the dark and poor indictments of the victorian England at that time. Its also super hilarious and chucklesome.☺☺☺
i wish i went to class with you just to hear your approach to the works we'd study!! this video was magnificient! can't wait to see more? maybe you could do one for anna karenina?
i loved that book. i related a lot to the story because i live in a third world country where 60% of the population lives in extreme poverty conditions. it breaks my heart so bad, but i know i'll contribute to my society someday. no kids should suffer life oliver twist did, but it is what it is nowadays. :c
Keep making such videos, absolutely love them. Also, I want to recommend you a manga, it's the most popular one, you must have heard about it. It's - Death Note. I would love to hear you talk about it.
Incredibly intuitive description of a Dickens' classic. I'm not sure what your plans are after university, but it is my hope that you might teach. Your passion reminds me of an English literature teacher I had. I was already a voracious reader, (my mother was a journalist and our house was full of books) but she opened up so many more avenues with her suggestions and mentored me in exploring more authors and my own creative writing endeavors. I also appreciate the calm, almost ASMR quality of your videos. Kudos! You have a brilliant future.
Sadly this is not the type of video that will rack up views, but they’re so essential to experience the story to its fullest. Also it has a cool seminar vibe, keep doing these !! After the Kawabata (edit: typo) one, this is the “deepest” video you put out. Nice insights all round for the non english/lit students looking to get more from reading. Have a nice back to school season 🌟
I didn't know I needed this video my whole life...at least since I read the book when I was maybe 10 !!! So WOWED by your analysis...Thanks for the lecture plus your brother is an awesome actor...risking tree climbing!!! You guys are proud siblings and it shows...luv u🤗👍❤🤗🙏🤗
Ever since I have started watching your videos, my reading list has significantly grown. I fall for literature more and more with every read. Thank You so much. Please upload more of such videos, perhaps on 100 Years of Solitude or Phantom of the Opera. Also, a lot of love to your family. All the love and power to you.
Hi Emmie I enjoy the thought and depth you go into in Oliver and other story reviews I'm only new to your Chanel but it's one of the better more informative ones out there, keep it coming please 😊
i'll finish watching this when i'm done with the book. i did purchase it because of your video in june, hahah! you have great insights, emma! love these videos
Emma, can you please do a video on How to read literature? Particularly more complicated literature. What do you look for? I majored in Political Philosophy, but I always wished I majored in English Literature. I’d love your insight on how to read academically!
Dear Emma, Thank you so much for this insightful and lovely video. With your love for literature as well as your understanding of and pondering upon the subjects, descriptions and historical circumstances that you encounter through books, one cannot but feel a deep desire to sit down and be engulfed by one. I truly hope you will create more of these 'lectures' in the future as they are very wonderful, and their way of casting a light upon how you read is further intriguing. Sending you lots of warm virtual hugs from Denmark.
This was so good. I have some pretty big gaps with Dickens. I wish I had you as tutor. I'm starting to read and collect Zola, oxford has a complete set of his 20 book family saga!

You‘re so well spoken and eloquent. I really see a scholar in the making here!
ok but your voice is soooo soothing. I can literally listen to it for hours
you always have such thoughtful content. i can tell how much you genuinely enjoy reading and what literature has to offer.
What a wonderful video, Emma! The part where you talk about death got me really emotional, ngl. Also, for a book that you didn't enjoy that much, the way you discussed it was so inspiring and meaningful. You're so talented!
this is like a love letter to oliver twist, i love it ❤
You know I love all of your videos but these stand alone book videos are so amazing!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you for all the work you put into them! ❤️

Damn! You must had put alot of effort and time into making this video. Always wondered what Oliver Twist was about, but too intimidated by the book to read it. Btw, that brown shirt is beautiful!
when your brother fell off the tree I- 😭
my heart stopped for a few seconds lol
Omg the shots in the beginning were so beautiful :0
Love the look in this video, amazing analysis of the book. Would love to have these kinds of discussions in an emma-bookclub
you should join the dickens vs tolstoy liveshows! they are basically like this
Very sombre and soothing lecture:you are in scholarly form!👩🎓I would also treat the novel as a Homeric tale, exemplified in a key passage where the Dodger drags Oliver into the underworld.My compliments to Benjamin for his dedication to his craft, although he strikes me as more Huckleberry Finn than Oliver😀❤️
Ohh very interesting!!
I loved hearing you talk about this book way more than the actual experience of reading it :D thank you Emma for this.
oh my gosh i'm cryin just watchin her talk and describe the novel...i'll calmly die in heaven if i read the book, and so i'm readin it tomorrow.
This is exquisitely spoken Cliff Notes.
Your voice is truly beautiful.
I can not express how much I enjoyed watching this video. I clicked to watch half now and half later, but I could not stop until the end. Superb, dear Emma.
Benjamin is great❤️❤️❤️
Your facial expressions as you read the last pages of War And Peace brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for sharing.
As someone who cannot abide Dickens, your analysis and wonderfully modulated voice have nearly sold me on giving it another go. That and Ben's heroic performance even whilst you were laughing. You have a brother to be cherished.
I love this woman so much. A slow day + Emma + books + my cat + coffee + my plants = 💗
The commitment from Benjamin is impressive. Also, it really is too bad Dickens wasn't a Leftist.
I love listening to you talk, you’re such a calming being x
I love this vid and I love Benjamin!! He's such a good sport and great brother!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️ PS. Would love you to talk about Jane Eyre. I love that book. It's one of my fave books of all time. 🤗📙🐛💚

I read it a long time ago, and it became an all time favorite. This video revived my love for it!
The fact that emmie isn't like most of youtubers starting from "wlcm back to my channel" but by these random yet adorable lines....
I start watching your videos, and they are amazing, thank you for the inspiration. And I love your aesthetic.
Wowie this is an amazing lecture!! I enjoyed listening thank you 🙏☺️

farmer of infants...sounds just like a modest proposal
All the stars!!! Fantastic video as always!! Thank you for all the effort you put into them!
other than the 100 recommendations vid, this is my favorite. I would love more non-spoiler lecture vids on individual books!!
read oliver twist a few weeks ago as my first introduction to dickens, absolutely loved it!
i wish i went to class with you just to hear your approach to the works we'd study!!
this video was magnificient! can't wait to see more? maybe you could do one for anna karenina?
i loved that book. i related a lot to the story because i live in a third world country where 60% of the population lives in extreme poverty conditions. it breaks my heart so bad, but i know i'll contribute to my society someday. no kids should suffer life oliver twist did, but it is what it is nowadays. :c

Emma, thank you for all the pleasure! Please, please continue with this kind of videos!♥️
I didn't know I needed this video my whole life...at least since I read the book when I was maybe 10 !!! So WOWED by your analysis...Thanks for the lecture plus your brother is an awesome actor...risking tree climbing!!! You guys are proud siblings and it shows...luv u🤗👍❤🤗🙏🤗
Wow!! One of my fav quotes from Oliver Twist from the begining!!! 🤗❤❤🇦🇷

The best literature teacher right here. Thank you for everything Em!!! Much love 🤍🤍🤍
Awesome job done with this video! I haven’t read this book but thanks to your video now I want to add it to my tube. 😊
I love ❤ this video. I have never read any Dickens' books but you make me want to read Olice Twist. Thank you for such great content
Performance is a really cool idea! Hope Emmie gets better soon!
Her voice omg I can’t
Oh my god your brother is an absolute gem
Loved the vlog (as always!) but thought your brother was more Huck Finn than Oliver Twist!
We need a bigger costume budget😅
needed this dab of sadness in my life
that video is so so so so amazing
would love if you do one like this of 100 years of solitude
I'd love to see you do this type of video on Noli Me Tangere, I think it would be such an interesting discussion!
This was so good. I have some pretty big gaps with Dickens. I wish I had you as tutor.
I'm starting to read and collect Zola, oxford has a complete set of his 20 book family saga!
i recently bought Thérèse Raquin and can’t wait to give it a try! it’ll be my first Zola, i’m hoping to fall in love with a new author lol!
