Oh how I love this story!

Great Expectations is narrated through the innocent eyes of a poor orphan boy named Philip Pirrip (Pip), as he charts his journey through life in retrospect.

And of course in classic Charles Dickens style, we meet an unforgettable cast of characters– Estella, Jaggers, Wemmick, the Aged Parent, Miss Skiffens, Joe Gargery, Mrs. Joe, the convict, Uncle Pumblechook, Mr. Wopsle, Compeyson, Bentley Drummle, Molly, Startop, Biddy, Herbert, and of course the creepy Miss Havisham. ...more
