Velike nade

Velike nade

Charles Dickens

A novel of growing up and maturing, a violent drama of temptation and pain.

In a remote area of ​​England, in swampy Kent, lives a poor boy Pip, unsure even of his origin and name, condemned to mere survival and suffering in the house of his sister and her husband. His difficult childhood is full of punishments and suffering for existing at all. In the same place lives the beautiful and haughty Estella, a girl who was adopted by the wealthy Mrs. Hevisham and raised to be cruel and cold towards men. After the first meeting, Pip is enchanted by Estela and falls passionately in love with her. Carried away by strong feelings, this modest boy from the province is determined to realize his dream and become a gentleman, and a mysterious set of circumstances and the generosity of a mysterious benefactor bring him success that he did not expect. The unusual destinies of unforgettable characters intertwine in miraculous ways - all of them, carried away by great expectations, disappear under their weight.
