Pip''s life as an ordinary country boy is destined to be unexceptional until mysterious events lead him away from his humble origins and up the social ladder. His efforts to become a London gentleman bring him into contact with the upper classes but also with dangerous criminals. Pip''s desire to improve himself is matched only by his longing for the icy-hearted Estella, but secrets from the past impede his progress and he has many hard lessons to learn.
