Great Expectations by Charles Dickens is one of the great coming-of-age novels in English literature: a rich story of ambition, shame, love, class, and moral awakening.
Pip is an orphan raised by his sister and her kind blacksmith husband, Joe Gargery. After a frightening encounter with an escaped convict on the marshes and later an invitation to the decaying house of the mysterious Miss Havisham, Pip begins to dream of becoming a gentleman. When he unexpectedly receives a fortune from an unknown benefactor, he leaves behind his humble origins for London, believing that wealth and status will transform his life.
But Pip's expectations are built on illusion. His love for Estella, his embarrassment toward Joe, and his misunderstanding of generosity and worth lead him through painful lessons about pride, gratitude, and identity. Dickens fills the novel with unforgettable figures, from Miss Havisham in her ruined wedding dress to the lawyer Jaggers and the loyal Herbert Pocket.
First published in 1860-1861, Great Expectations remains one of Dickens's most psychologically complex works. It is a moving exploration of growing up, making mistakes, and learning what truly gives a life value.

Geschichte ist gut, es sind ein paar recht interessante Ideen drin. Eine wirklich spannende Handlung die etwas Besonderes hat. Zum Lesen halt auch hart, man muss da erst mal rein kommen, da kann man sich auf einen Kampf einstellen. Nicht das leichteste Englisch.
