GREAT EXPECTATIONS is Charles Dickensâs beloved, autobiographical tale of a poor boy haunted by a dark secret and harboring grand hopes for his future as a gentleman. Pip, the storyâs narrator, takes us through his early lifeâfrom his brush with an escaped convict on the marshes of southeast England to his exposure to genteel society through the warped old Miss Havisham and her icy protĂ©gĂ©, the alluring young Estella. Apprenticed to the blacksmith, the tender-hearted Joe, Pipâs fortunes change dramatically thanks to a mysterious benefactor, and he must figure out what is real and what is false as he navigates his new world, while never quite escaping his old.
