Great Expectations

An orphan's dream of greatness becomes a journey of truth and transformation.

Great Expectations (1861), by Charles Dickens, is a sweeping story of ambition, identity, and the search for love and belonging.

The novel follows Pip, a poor orphan raised by his harsh sister, whose life changes forever when he receives an unexpected fortune from a mysterious benefactor. As Pip moves from the marshes of Kent to the glittering streets of London, he grapples with questions of class, loyalty, and morality—while falling hopelessly in love with the beautiful but cold-hearted Estella.

With unforgettable characters like the tragic Miss Havisham, the loyal Joe Gargery, and the enigmatic Magwitch, Dickens weaves a powerful tale of ambition and disillusionment that ultimately reveals the true sources of happiness: compassion, humility, and integrity.

Regarded as one of Dickens' greatest achievements, Great Expectations is both a gripping coming-of-age story and a profound social critique, as moving today as when it was first published.
