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 orphaned Pip's life forever, and he eagerly abandons his humble origins to begin a new life as a gentleman. Dickens' haunting late novel depicts Pip's education and development through adversity as he discovers thetrue nature of his 'great expectations'.

用户评价

对Estella的所谓“爱情”线不令我信服，其实很多地方都不令人信服，但考虑到成书时间早，可以理解。

Oh, our great expectations

对狄更斯一直不感冒，觉得他故事设计很好看，但是讲故事能力一般般。。

29/1-28/6，透析英文单词418，80%以上在地铁上完成。作品本身真的没有什么好说的，文笔也是。【终于在一年过半完成了他，感觉像是完成一项壮举】

仿佛红楼一梦··· 【结局“And will continue friends apart,” OR “ ···had given her a heart to understand what my heart used to be.”】
