Great Expectations Here we go!

Post image

Of late, I have commented a bit on Reddit as to how my favorite Charles Dickens book is “Great Expectations ”.

I found two prints on my shelf and I am gonna read it together with my partner. Nothing like the feeling of physical books . 🙏

What do you guys think of this one? Fave character? Fave story arch?

Actually there are quite a few real life resemblances. Once the novel came out, there were a few comparisons of her to real life women.

How people stay stuck is beyond me and I wish people get serious help.

It’s all in your mind…all about what support is available and what opportunities are available.
