In my life I have seen a few people who are like Miss Havisham. Maybe some have lost a loved one, some never married and some indeed once married but trapped in time by some hurt of the past or some left at the altar.
Dickens has so placed real life into a book that has become well known throughout the world.
I am sure all of us can relate to people who have immortalized time in a situation.
Dickens was a man who used his experience in life to reach out to others by using his writing to really show people perhaps the very reality that they did not want to face, of how the economic times of the 1800's effected the poor and how life was very different to the poor than the rich.
I clearly remember Great Expectations reading it at school.
What lessons can we take from a book written one hundred and fifty years ago.
Take the time to read some of Dickens books you may learn something about yourself and also how fortunate we are today.
Wishing you lots of Tasty of English Delights
There's always room for one more.
