Great Expectations (Deluxe Edition) Hardcover

Pip's rise from a village forge to London gentility rests on money whose source he badly misreads, and Dickens lets that mistake run its whole course. The novel moves from a churchyard meeting with an escaped convict through Miss Havisham's stopped clocks to the moment Pip learns who actually paid for his education. At 600 pages, this hardbound deluxe edition keeps the complete text intact, together with Joe Gargery, Estella, Jaggers and Magwitch. Why it stays in print: • Dickens's complete narrative set across 600 pages • a first-person account of apprenticeship, fortune and reckoning • sturdy hardbound covers for a long novel that gets reread • a text version workable for university courses and self-study Suited to readers working through Victorian fiction and to anyone building a Dickens shelf, from Fingerprint Publishing, available at Boipoka.
