What to expect

Great Expectations is a coming-of-age novel that tells the story of Pip, a young orphan raised by his harsh sister and her gentle husband in rural England. When Pip receives an unexpected fortune from an unknown benefactor, he is thrust into London society with dreams of becoming a gentleman. As he navigates this new world, he faces illusions, heartbreak, and hard lessons about identity, loyalty, and the true meaning of success. Through Pip's journey, Dickens explores the complexities of ambition, class, and moral growth. The novel is rich with unforgettable characters—like the eccentric Miss Havisham and the cold but captivating Estella—and it challenges the idea that wealth and status equate to happiness. Ultimately, Great Expectations is a powerful narrative of self-discovery, redemption, and what it means to grow up with integrity.
