Hmm, I didn't think any of this book's major "twists" were given away by reading Dickens in advance, it was a different story.
I knew the outcome for every character since I had already read Copperfield and seen many movie versions. The characters essentially all meet the same fate.
There's nothing new under the sun! These are the same fates all characters meet in some form in all of literature. It's all in the execution.
