Enter the labyrinth of Victorian society in Charles Dickens' timeless masterpiece. This edition features a historical biography including:

  • An exploration of his growing literary career.
  • A glimpse into “the affair”. The greatest scandal of his life

  • Reflections on his enduring legacy.

Philip Pirrip, also known as Pip, a blacksmith’s apprentice in a country village, falls in love with Estella, the beautiful but cold-hearted daughter of eccentric Miss Havisham, a wealthy woman who lives in seclusion. He becomes motivated and aspires to become a gentleman to win her affection.

His hopes are fueled when he receives a large and mysterious inheritance from a mysterious benefactor, this sets off a chain of events that will change his life.

As Pip ascends the social ladder, he becomes ashamed of his humble origins and distances himself from his childhood friends.

Throughout the novel, themes of social injustice, redemption, and the corrupting influence of wealth are explored.

"Great Expectations" is celebrated for its vivid characters, intricate plot twists, and Dickens' sharp insights into Victorian society.
