About This Novel
The orphan Pip was raised by his sister since he was a child. He was employed by the noble Havisham and fell in love with her adopted daughter Estella. He wanted to become a "superior". A fugitive whom he kindly rescued when he was young became rich abroad. In order to repay the favor of saving his life, he cleverly arranged for him to go to London to receive a higher education and enter the upper class society. However, fate is not in line with Pip's hope: Estella marries another man, the fugitive is captured, the inheritance is confiscated, and Pip's "Great Expectations" comes to nothing in the blink of an eye. The plot of the entire novel is gripping and touching. The process of hope from birth to disillusionment has aroused the resonance of generations of readers. Many Western critics praise it as Dickens's most outstanding work.
