Charles Dickens
一次偶然的機會皮普遇見了一名逃犯。並偷了家裏的東西幫助他。不久,皮普受邀到哈維沙姆小姐的薩蒂斯大院玩耍,從此內心發生變化。他愛上了美麗卻冷漠的埃斯特拉,開始爲自己的出身及親人感到害臊。一天,皮普突然受到一位不願透露姓名的人士資助。被送到倫敦接受上等人的教育,他爲此欣喜若狂。
Pip lost his great expectations when he thought he was coming into prosperity. I lost my great HAPPINESS when I thought I was soooo close to bliss. It hurts. Pip was lucky to have Herbert as best friend and Joe his family. But for me, it seems that I have nothing to expect in my life. Anyway, if I die one day because of heartbreak and desperation, I deserve it right because I attach my expectations and happiness on another person while I shouldn't have done. Just as Dickens has told us 200 years ago.
這是牛津書蟲版的,給小朋友看的。千萬別點錯,因爲原著未刪改版好看很多…
