Descriere magazin:
Great Expectations is at once a superbly constructed novel of spellbinding mastery and a profound examination of moral values. Here, some of Dickens\'s most memorable characters come to play their part in a story whose title itself reflects the deep irony that shaped Dickens\'s searching reappraisal of the Victorian middle class. \' Great Expectations is up there for me with the world\'s greatest novels\' Howard Jacobson. Nominated as one of America\'s best-loved novels by PBS\'s The Great American Read Charles Dickens\'s Great Expectations charts the course of orphan Pip Pirrip\'s life as it is transformed by a vast, mysterious inheritance. A terrifying encounter with the escaped convict Abel Magwitch in a graveyard on the wild Kent marshes; a summons to meet the bitter, decrepit Miss Havisham and her beautiful, cold-hearted ward Estella at Satis House; the sudden generosity of a mysterious benefactor - these form a series of events that change the orphaned Pip\'s life forever, and he eagerly abandons his humble station as an apprentice to blacksmith Joe Gargery, beginning a new life as a gentleman. Charles Dickens\'s haunting late novel depicts Pip\'s education and development through adversity as he discovers the true nature of his identity, and his \'great expectations\'. This definitive version uses the text from the first published edition of 1861. It includes a map of Kent in the early nineteenth century, and appendices on Dickens\'s original ending and his working notes, giving readers an illuminating glimpse into the mind of a great novelist at work.
