Great expectations
(Book)
Description
"A terrifying encounter with an escaped convict in a graveyard on the wild Kent marshes; a summons to meet the bitter Miss Havisham and her beautiful ward Estella; the sudden generosity of a mysterious benefactor--these form a series of events that change the orphan Pip's life forever, as he abandons his humble origins to begin a new life as a gentleman. Dickens's novel depicts Pip's education and development through adversity as he discovers the true nature of his great expectations." --
