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.

Prisoner of Heaven
After the shadow of the wind and the angel game, I ended my strange meeting with Carlos Zafon in the third part of the Tomb of Forgotten Books series in this piece that I read while trying to understand what was going on in his head, which wanted the prisoner of heaven to tell us the dark nights of Barcelona from the window of its prisons, that prison that embraced Martin for a long time and through which he excelled in writing The Game of the Angel, which was the hero of that novel David Martin and Isabella, and we got to know their end, which was not confirmed by the lines. The writer also explains that what we can consider a coincidence with us may be wisely studied and what we interact with with all honesty may be fake and obsolete as the first boot, the past is just images stuck in our heads and just a glance of it returns to expose itself, and opens new cracks in our hearts, pushing you to search and explore what the truth is and to what extent it can comfort you or in any proportion that may make you a wreckage between the legs, yet the search for it is The way of salvation,
