Ambivalent Intimacies in Dickens' Bleak House
Esther narrates her version of the events of Bleak House from a retrospect of seven years, a perspective that involves acts of narrative reconstruction and re-evaluation, as well as being delivered through the manipulation of a past tense that affects both immediacy and ingenuousness.

If this is so, the Esther's description of her encounter with Lady Dedlock must on some level reflect both her knowledge of her mother's true identity as well as her own emotional investment in this knowledge, whilst also obscuring this pivotal information in order to preserve the chronological integrity of the text.

And if passion by its very nature can be seen as disruptive as it breaks with imposed decorum, then passion in the world of Bleak House seems emphatically destructive as it is rendered illicit, secretive and finally of course unlawful.

It is this unlawful aspect of passion that dramatically unites Hortense and Lady Dedlock against the sterile stagnancy of the lawyer, Tulkinghorn, and adds conspicuous irony to the manner of his violent death, a bullet through his rusty, obsolete heart.
