"We need
never be ashamed of our tears."
With an Introduction and Notes by Dr John
Bowen, Keele University.
Illustrations by Marcus Stone.
Considered
by many to be Dickens' finest novel, Great Expectations traces
the growth of the book's narrator, Philip Pirrip (Pip), from a boy of shallow
dreams to a man with depth of character. From its famous dramatic opening on
the bleak Kentish marshes, the story abounds with some of Dickens' most
memorable characters. Among them are the kindly blacksmith Joe Gargery, the
mysterious convict Abel Magwitch, the eccentric Miss Havisham and her beautiful
ward Estella, Pip's good-hearted room-mate Herbert Pocket and the pompous
Pumblechook. As Pip unravels the truth behind his own ‘great expectations’ in
his quest to become a gentleman, the mysteries of the past and the convolutions
of fate through a series of thrilling adventures serve to steer him towards
maturity and his most important discovery of all - the truth about himself.
