Great Expectations charts Pip’s progress from childhood through often traumatic experiences to adulthood, as he moves from the marshes of Kent to the busy commercial city of London, encountering a variety of unusual characters from Magwitch, an escaped convict, to Miss Havisham, a prisoner with a miserable past and living with her ward, the beautiful, haughty Estella. Pip must discover his true character and his own set of values and priorities. Whether such values allow one to thrive in the complex world of early Victorian England is the central question posed by Great Expectations, one of Dickens’ most fascinating and disturbing novels. This edition includes the neglected original ending, Dickens’ brief working notes, and the serial installments and chapter sections in various editions. It also uses Clarendon’s final text.
