Great expectations
(Book on CD)

Compact disc

Narrated by Frank Muller

From a deprived and isolated childhood, Charles Dickens rose to become one of the greatest novelists the world has ever known. Filled with unforgettable settings and characters, it is a richly dramatic, unforgettable tale. We first meet Philip "Pip" Pirrip as a tiny, terrified child in a village churchyard, where he unexpectedly encounters an escaped convict. Years later, through the help of an anonymous benefactor, Pip will travel to London, full of expectations to become a gentleman. But this life is already inextricably tangled in a mystery that surrounds a beautiful woman, an embittered recluse, and an ambitious lawyer.
