About this listen

Featured title on PBS’s The Great American Read in 2018

Raised in squalor in the marsh country of Kent, the orphan Pip is taken under the wing of the eccentric and reclusive Miss Havisham - only to blindly give his heart to the dowager’s beautiful but ice-cold adopted daughter, Estella. Even as a mysterious benefactor helps to shape Pip’s life into one of fortune, success, and self-discovery, the unspeakable secrets of his unrequited love continue to haunt him - and promise to change his life once again.

With its indelible cast of characters, immersive epic narrative, and startling dramatic twists, Charles Dickens’s powerful classic continues to enthrall generations of new listeners.

Revised edition: Previously published as Great Expectations, this edition of Great Expectations (AmazonClassics Edition) includes editorial revisions.

There are some great characters in this book, Pip's adoptive father "Dear Joe" and the truly awful Pumblechook, also Wemmick, Mr Jaggers, so many others. The attitudes and social injustice and nonsense of the time are woven into a good story. Narrator is fantastic.

This is one of the best narrations I have heard on Audible. The reader captured Dickens’ many characters perfectly. So enjoyable!
