In 19th-century England, Pip, an orphan boy, has a life-changing encounter on the moors when he helps an escaped convict get food and free himself from his leg irons. From this one act of kindness, Pip starts on a journey to manhood that is full of unexpected twists and turns. When a mysterious benefactor sends Pip to London to become a gentleman, all his wildest dreams come true. Or do they? This thrilling tale of friendship, love, the nature of generosity, and the price of revenge is one of the greatest coming-of-age stories in English literature.
