Wholesale Great Expectations

Pip, a poor blacksmith's apprentice, is terrified into aiding an escaped convict, summoned to a decaying mansion by the jilted Miss Havisham, and smitten by her cold ward Estella. When an anonymous benefactor makes him a gentleman, Pip abandons his humble roots for London society—only to discover the source of his fortune, and his own snobbery, are not what he believed. Dickens's beloved coming-of-age classic weaves crime, thwarted love, and hard-won redemption into an unforgettable story of great expectations disappointed and character remade. * One of the greatest coming-of-age novels ever written, in an affordable Sweetwater edition * Dickens's unforgettable cast: the ghostly bride Miss Havisham, the icy Estella, the loyal Joe * A boy's rise to gentility—and the shocking secret behind his fortune * A timeless story of ambition, class, and what really makes a life worth living “Pause you who read this, and think for a moment of the long chain of iron or gold, of thorns or flowers, that would never have bound you, but for the formation of the first link on one memorable day.” Perfect for a reader of classic literature or a student/book-club member wanting an accessible, affordably reprinted edition of a canonical Dickens novel.
