Summary

In this, perhaps Dickens' most profound and personal novel, we are invited to share in the sentimental education of Pip, the poor boy from the village forge who risks losing himself in snobbery and selfishness when he mysteriously inherits a fortune. The story moves from the bleak Kentish marshes of Pip's childhood to a thrilling climax that mingles tragedy and triumph.

Fantastic interpretation of the characters! Wonderful story.
P.S. Als Deutsche habe ich nicht immer jedes Wort verstanden, aber das tut der Geschichte keinen Abbruch. Trotzdem so großartig es im Original zu hören!

Great speaker!
