Description

The thirteenth and penultimate novel by Charles Dickens, "Great Expectations" chronicles the education of Pip, an orphan living in mid-nineteenth century London.

Including such themes as wealth and poverty, love and rejection, and triumph over evil, this novel represents a classic example of Dickensian literature not to be missed by lovers of his work.

Charles John Huffam Dickens (1812-1870) was an English writer and social critic famous for having created some of the world's most well-known fictional characters.

His works became unprecedentedly popular during his life, and today he is commonly regarded as the greatest Victorian-era novelist.

Although perhaps better known for such works as "Oliver Twist" or "A Christmas Carol", Dickens first gained success with the 1836 serial publication of "The Pickwick Papers", which turned him almost overnight into an international literary celebrity thanks to his humour, satire, and astute observations concerning society and character.

This classic work is being republished now in a new edition complete with an introductory chapter from "Appreciations and Criticisms of the Works of Charles Dickens" by G.

K. Chesterton.
