Great Expectations

Viac o knihe

The narrative begins with Pip, who reflects on his identity shaped by his family name, Pirrip, and the absence of his parents, leading to imaginative conclusions drawn from their tombstones. His whimsical interpretations of his father's and mother's appearances are influenced by the inscriptions, while the gravestones of his siblings evoke a humorous yet poignant view of their short lives. This introspective journey sets the stage for Pip's development and the exploration of themes such as identity, loss, and the impact of upbringing.
