Raised by a humble blacksmith, Pip is recruited by the wealthy Miss Havisham to be a companion to her ward, the cold but beautiful Estella. There, Pip learns to despise his rough origins as Estella torments him about his low prospects. When Pip is informed that an unknown benefactor expects to make him his heir, he sets off to London to realize his "great expectations." But true gentleman stature, he will find, is a matter of character, not fortune. 650 0 $a Man-woman relationships $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Ex-convicts $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Benefactors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Young men $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Revenge $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Orphans $v Fiction. 651 0 $a England $v Fiction. 941 $a 1 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20230512010414.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=51A55986F08A11EDB88C213231ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
