OverviewGreat Expectations is one of Charles Dickens's most celebrated novels, exploring themes of ambition, social class, moral responsibility, and personal growth in nineteenth-century England. The story follows Pip, an orphan raised by his stern sister and her gentle husband, whose life changes after a mysterious benefactor enables him to pursue a gentleman's education in London. As Pip navigates wealth, love, and social aspiration, he gradually confronts the cost of pride, the illusion of status, and the true meaning of integrity. Dickens populates the novel with unforgettable characters, including the eccentric Miss Havisham, the haunting Estella, and the convict Magwitch, whose hidden influence reshapes Pip's destiny. Through richly detailed settings and psychological insight, the novel critiques Victorian class structures while emphasizing compassion, humility, and moral accountability. First published in serialized form between 1860 and 1861, Great Expectations remains widely studied for its narrative craftsmanship, character development, and social commentary. This edition presents the complete original text in a clear format suitable for students, libraries, and general readers.
