Sobre aquest llibre
Charles Dickens's "Great Expectations" intricately weaves the coming-of-age tale of Pip, an orphan who experiences a profound journey of self-discovery, ambition, and social class dynamics in Victorian England. Dickens employs a vivid narrative style characterized by rich descriptions, memorable characters, and keen social critique. The novel reflects the broader literary context of the 19th century, addressing themes of class mobility and moral integrity, encapsulated in Pip's evolving expectations as he navigates a world filled with wealth and deception. Dickens drew upon his own experiences of poverty and social upheaval in shaping this poignant story, having experienced the hardships of working-class life before achieving literary acclaim. His exposure to the criminal justice system and orphanhood in his youth deeply influenced his portrayal of the societal structures that govern human relationships. Through Pip's journey, Dickens critiques the deficiencies of the social hierarchy and the moral bankruptcy often accompanying wealth. "Great Expectations" is not merely a nostalgic reflection on youth; it is a compelling exploration of personal growth and the interplay of social forces. Readers will find themselves captivated by Pip's trials and triumphs, making it an essential read for those interested in Victorian literature and the complexities of human nature.
