Dombey and Son by Charles Dickens, published in monthly parts from 1 October 1846 to 1 April 1848 and in one volume in 1848. Its full title is Dealings with the Firm of Dombey and Son: Wholesale, Retail and for Exportation.

Never parsimonious and frequently contradictory, he always gives us everything he can, everything he's planned to give, and then more."
