Sinossi
La vicenda di questo splendido romanzo di Dickens – uno dei migliori per coerenza e compattezza costruttiva e per maestria stilistica – ruota intorno a un’illusione che segna irreparabilmente la vita di Pip, il protagonista, un ragazzo del popolo: abbagliato dalle «grandi speranze», lungo il percorso dall’infanzia alla maturità le vede svanire una dopo l’altra; all’indefinita trepidazione dell’attesa si va sostituendo la disillusione tragica, iscritta nitidamente sulle rovine e sulla morte. La scena finale del reincontro di Pip con Estella non è un vero “lieto fine”, e non fornisce risposte: Dickens dice solo che Pip non vide «l’ombra di un altro distacco».

My students (and some of my friends) can't ever figure out why I love this novel so much.

”I saw that the bride within the bridal dress had withered like the dress, and like the flowers, and had no brightness left but the brightness of her sunken eyes. I saw that the dress had been put upon the rounded figure of a young woman, and that the figure upon which it now hung loose had shrunk t Leggi tutto
"Pause you who read this, and think for a moment of the long chain of iron or gold, of thorns or flowers, that would never have bound you, but for the formation of the first link on one memorable day." That is such a quote. If there was ever a novel that shows us the dangers of false perceptions
Not as good as Christmas Carol and Oliver Twist, a tiny bit better than A tale of two cities, but to its core just Oliver Twist 2.0 with a first person narrator, and a perfect reason for why nobody likes serialized short stories condensed to weak novels. I mentioned some of the weaknesses of Dickens Leggi tutto
Boring, dull, lifeless, and flat. This is so drawn out and boring I kept having to remind myself what the plot was. Best to get someone else to sum up the story rather than undergo the torture of reading it.
