Editorial Review:
Product Description:
NOTE: This edition has a linked "Table of Contents" and has been beautifully formatted (searchable and interlinked) to work on your Amazon e-book reader or iPod e-book reader. Includes the ten original first-edition illustrations.
Great Expectations is a novel by Charles Dickens. It's regarded as one of his greatest and most sophisticated novels, and is also one of his most enduringly popular books.
In an overgrown churchyard on the eerie Kent marshes, the orphan Pip accidently comes upon an escaped convict, Magwitch, and is forced to provide him food--an encounter that is to haunt both their lives. It's written in a semi-autobiographical style, and is the story of Pip, writing his life from his early days of childhood until adulthood.
Gratitude, suffering, and social mobility comprise the main themes in the novel that also blends gripping drama with penetrating satire. A well-written and compelling story.

This was a Christmas gift for my oldest granddaughter. I was very pleased with the item and the shipping. She was delighted to receive the book. I will shop first at Amazon for everything I am wanting to purchase.

I am an English Major, so I have a soft spot for anything written by Dickens. I bought this for a friends graduation (get it...Great Expectations...)and I am jealous of her now. This edition comes hard bound with an old style canvas-like covering. As far as I've seen, it is a reliable and true-to-original edition (Penguin is usually good for this). There is critical material in the back of the book so non-critical or casual readers can do some in-depth thinking into the piece after reading it. ... Read More

A great reading but the sixteen discs are not labeled as to chapters on the disc nor are there any liner notes. You must play the disc and wait for the chapter to be mentioned during the reading. I do not see why they would have left these necessary conveniences out. Very inconvenient.

Read this book in high school many years ago and probably did not understand the story fully. Just reread it and I absolutely loved the story. The depth of the characters is amazing. You feel like you have know them all of your life. Much more enjoyable now than at the high school level.

I love classic literature and this was a great find. The reader of this great work does a stellar job creating the character's voices which adds so much to the story.
I have enjoyed this very much and will share it with my family.
