In this unflaggingly suspenseful story of aspirations and moral
redemption, humble, orphaned Pip, a ward of his short-tempered older
sister and her husband, Joe, is apprenticed to the dirty work of the
forge but dares to dream of becoming a gentleman. Written in the last
decade of Dickens' life, Great Expectations was praised widely and
universally admired. It was his last great novel, and many critics
believe it to be his finest. Readers and critics alike praised it for
its masterful plot, and for its three-dimensional, psychologically
realistic characters.
Characters: 19. Amazon rating: 4 1/2 stars. Genre: Classics/Fiction.
