Great Expectations (Classic Fiction)

The absorbing story of a struggling orphan who finds his expectations of wealth unfulfilled, after he becomes the benefactor of an anonymous donor.

An absorbing mystery as well as a morality tale, the story of Pip, a poor village lad, and his expectations of wealth is Dickens at his most deliciously readable. The cast of characters includes kindly Joe Gargery, the loyal convict Abel Magwitch and the haunting Miss Havisham. If you have heartstrings, count on them being tugged.
