Great Expectations
批評家のレビュー
“This nippy, easy-to-digest condensing and rewriting of the novel … doesn’t put a word wrong … the story flies along with the narrative trot of a finely crafted literary telenovela. Landman has oiled the wheels of Mr Rochester’s carriage … makes the essence of a great book accessible to all.” – Jane Eyre: A Retelling, The Times Children’s Book of the Week
"Skilfully stripped back to the core essentials … the perfect introduction" – The Scotsman on Barrington Stoke Classic Retellings

Orphaned as baby, Pip is raised by his sister to live the simple life of a blacksmith’s boy. But a chance encounter in a graveyard and a visit to a ruined mansion set him on a different path. When a secret benefactor pays for him to become a gentleman, Pip’s life takes a greatly unexpected turn…
