The book review of Great Expectations
Recently, I have finished reading Great Expectations, which is widely considered as the masterpiece of Dickens.The historic background of this book is Victorian Period which was the time when British was governed by Queen Victoria.The hero of the book is Pip, who was living in a blacksmith family.Someday, he met Magwitch, who was a convict, and he helped him.To show his gratitude, Magwitch gave Pip a good fortune and Pip led a totally different life after he got the money.However, Pip lost all of his money and fame because of his enemies’ plot at the last and become ordinary people at the last.Dickens is famous for his novel such as Great Expectations, the Tale of Two Cities, Oliver Twist and so on.He always creates some people in lower cla and show their different qualities.In Great Expectations, he tried to show us the conflict between different claes in Victorian Period by telling us the story of Pip.After Pip got the money, he left his friends and family to city, and then he learned to raise his social state.However, he was a child born in a blacksmith family and there’s a wide gap between him and the upper cla.Finally, he lost all of his great expectations and went back to his hometown as ordinary people.Fortunately, he met his lover, Estella, in Satis House and they left there together at the end of the story.In the book, my favorite character is Joe, Pip’s brother in law.He was a blacksmith and belonged to the lower social cla.However, he poeed some good qualities that made him noble.For example, though Joe didn’t know any word, he thought highly of Pip when Pip tried to write him a letter.What’s more, Pip’s sister always considered Pip as the burden of their family but Joe always believed that his brother can become succeful.No matter how unkindly he was treated, Joe was always family to others.Undoubtedly, it’s Joe’s noble quality that prevents Pip from becoming someone snobbish.In my opinion, the story of Pip is really attractive while the writing style is also special.For example, Dickens used simile and metaphor for many times in his book.When Joe visited Pip, Dickens wrote that Joe had taken his hat as a bird’s nest with egg in.I think it’s hard to show the inner world of characters as well as feeling because those things are really abstract.On the other hand, if we write it directly, that may be boring and childish.And by using simile, Dickens transforms the abstract feeling into visual language, with which we can use our imagination to enjoy the story much more easily.I think that we can also make good use of Dickens’s outstanding skills to improve our writing.After reading “Great Expectations”, many people complained that the cla difference will always result in tragedy and they think that we should try to destroy those barriers.However, I think the maage that Dickens wants to deliver is that we should always be friendly, warm-hearted and optimistic.With these qualities, we can always lead a happy and comfortable life like Joe even though we don’t have much money.
