Great Expectations is a classic novel and it is the thirteenth novel by Charles Dickens and his penultimate completed novel; a bildungsroman (coming of age) that depicts the personal growth and personal development of an orphan nicknamed Pip.

The novel is set in Kent and London in the early to mid-19th century and contains some of Dickens's most memorable scenes, including the opening in a graveyard, where the young Pip is accosted by the escaped convict, Abel Magwitch.

Great Expectations is full of extreme imagery-poverty, prison ships and chains, and fights to the death-and has a colourful cast of characters who have entered popular culture. These include the eccentric Miss Havisham, the beautiful but cold Estella, and Joe, the unsophisticated and kind blacksmith.

Dickens's themes include wealth and poverty, love and rejection, and the eventual triumph of good over evil.
