书籍简介
一个可怕的遭遇与逃犯在荒野肯特沼泽墓地;召唤她去见痛苦的、衰老的郝薇香小姐和她美丽的、冷酷的养女艾丝黛拉;一位神秘的恩人突然慷慨解囊，这一系列的事件永远改变了孤儿皮普的生活，他急切地放弃了卑微的出身，开始了绅士的新生活。狄更斯的这部令人难忘的小说描述了皮普在逆境中受到的教育和成长，他发现了自己远大前程的真实本质。这本书在狄更斯去世前9年出版，至今仍是他较为著名的作品之一。
A terrifying encounter with an escaped convict in a graveyard on the wild Kent marshes; a summons to meet the bitter, decaying Miss Havisham and her beautiful, cold-hearted ward Estella; the sudden generosity of a mysterious benefactor-these form a series of events that change the orphan Pip's life forever, as he eagerly abandons his humble origins to begin a new life as a gentleman. Dickens's haunting novel depicts Pip's education and development through adversity as he discovers the true nature of his great expectations. Published nine years before Dickens's death, it remains one of his most celebrated works.
