About the book

Charles Dickens's Great Expectations follows Pip, an orphan whose life changes dramatically after he is mysteriously provided with the means to become a gentleman. Believing his fortune may be connected with the wealthy Miss Havisham and her beautiful ward Estella, Pip begins to distance himself from his humble origins. The eventual revelation of his true benefactor forces him to reconsider class, loyalty, ambition and personal worth. Believing that his mysterious fortune will help him win the beautiful Estella, Pip leaves his modest upbringing behind.
