With so many famous masterpieces on the booklist，it is really a pretty hard job to chooseone to read first. After much hesitation and deeply thought，I finally decided to borrowGreat Expectations from the small library.
Great Expectations is about love，family，and rejection as Pip and Miss Havisham have bothbeen rejected in certain ways. Pip is a boy around 13 years old，easy to fright，and goesthrough his life suffering lots of sadness. He is in love with a girl named Estella and wantsher to find his love，but for him being shy and not showing himself to her，it makes it veryhard for him.
Great Expectations was the penultimate novel pleted by the most popular novelist ofVictorian England，Charles Dickens. Born in Kent，England，in 1812 to a family of modestmeans but great pretensions，Dickens’s early life was marked by both humiliation andambition. Dickens never forgot the period of financial crisis during his childhood，whenfollowing his father’s bankruptcy，he was taken out of school and forced to work in ashoepolish warehouse.
Pip meets an escaped convict，Magwitch，and gives him food，in an encounter that is tohaunt both their lives.When Pip receives riches from a mysterious benefactor he snobbishly abandons his friendsfor London society and his“great expectations”.
I set up my mind to select it for the reason that I have read a brief introduction of thismasterpiece in my high school English textbook before. In addition，a Tale of Two Citieswhich is also written by Charles Dickens，the outstanding and special English writer，left mea wonderful and deep impression，when I finished reading the marvelous story.
Of course，Great Expectations didn’t let me down，either. What’s more，the whole structureof the novel is well and elaborately designed. The plot is extremely attractive and full ofunexpected twists. Quite a few characters have a distinguishable personality. Moreover，thosewords and sentences are so beautiful and meaningful that I even took them down carefully inmy notebook. By reading them no less than three times，I have learned not only some newphrases and sentences，but also a philosophy of life.
Among the characters，which impressed me most are not Pip and Estella who should be regardedas the leading roles，but Joe and Magwitch. I feel awfully sorry that I was not brave enoughto read the original edition that is as thick as a brick. Otherwise，I may appreciate Joe andMagwitch more.
Yes，they are not the main characters in the novel. However，what they saidand what they did deeply touched me. It’s interesting，isn’t it? They are quite theopposite guys. One is a totally good man without the least bit of wickedness while the otheris a prisoner who is believed to have mitted every evil.
I believe that everyone who reads the book is to like Joe. When he talked about his heavydrinking father who hit him a lot，he said he had a lot of love. Faced with his rude wife，hewould rather seem a bit weak or foolish than stand up to her and fight for himself. Knowingpeacockish Pip was ashamed of his uneducated manners，he left sadly and quietly. The worldrushes on over the strings of the lingering heart making the music of sadness. But when hewas informed of Pip’s illness，he immediately came to take good care of Pip.
He is alwayscontributing everything and requiring nothing. Such a man is Joe，kind，tolerant andselfless. "Nothing is so mild and gentle as courage，nothing so cruel and pitiless ascowardice，" says a wise author.
However，why do I appreciate Magwitch，the bad guy? You may wonder. Indeed，Magwitch did alot of evil things when he was young. But how can you be unmoved when you get to know thatthe old man kept himself going just by thinking of the boy who once did him a small favor?
He lost his only daughter and Pip had no parents，so he considered himself as the boy’ssecond father，making up his mind to help his dear boy became a gentleman. He did every kindof job and led a hard life in Australia. At last he made a big fortune and promised himselfthat all the money would go to Pip.
He could have led a better life in Australia，but Ihechose to go back to London .with the simple intention of seeing Pip，he went back at the riskof being hanged! “whatever the fault he had from the start，remember，reader，he had a goodheart.” Joe used these words to describe his father. But I think these words can betterdescribe Magwitch. He lived with the fear of death all his life. Who shuts love out，in turnshall be shut outfrom love. However，thankfully，because Pip finally realized his goodheart，his ending was peaceful.
Dickens has Pip as the writer and first person narrator of this account of his life'sexperiences，and the entire story is understood to have been written as a retrospective，rather than as a present tense narrative or a diary or journal. Still，though Pip "knows" howall the events in the story will turn out，he uses only very subtle foreshadowing so that welearn of events only when the Pip in the story does. Pip does，however，use the perspectiveof the bitter lessons he's learned to ment acidly on various actions and attitudes in hisearlier life.
I know how to fully understand this novel，twice is far from enough. Pip，Estella，MissHavisham，Biddy even Mr Wemmick，every single character has a story that is well worth myattention. I love this novel so much that I am determined to read the original edition oneday. Believe me. But before that day es，I will see the movie Great Expectations first.
Search for knowledge，read more，sit on your front porch and admire the view without payingattention to your needs.
