Dickens's 13th novel, published in 36 weekly parts in All the Year Round (December 1, 1860-August 3, 1861)), tells the story of Pip's life in three stages: his childhood and youth in Kent, his young manhood in London after he received his great expectations; and his disillusionment when he learns the source of his good fortune and realizes the emptiness of his worldly values.  From Charles Dickens A to Z by Paul Davis
