About this listen

A timeless tale of coming-of-age and transformation. A moving novel by the 19th century master writer Charles Dickens, which has seen nearly twenty film adaptations.

Orphaned Pip lives with his sister and her blacksmith husband. One day, the boy helps a hiding fugitive. Years pass, and Pip works as an apprentice for his brother-in-law. He is unhappily in love with Estella, a beautiful girl raised by the wealthy, eccentric old Miss Havisham. The young people are separated by one of the most prosaic reasons—financial status.

One day, however, it turns out that Pip's life may change dramatically. The young man receives a huge sum of money from an anonymous benefactor. There is one condition—Pip must go to London and pursue his education.

How will Pip, a boy from the provinces, fare in the big city? Will he find out who his benefactor is? And finally—will Pip and Estella's feelings have a happy ending?
