I can't really sympathise with the Miss H and Estella either. Miss H is nasty, but Estella is aware of what she is doing and is no mindless tool even though some argue she does keep putting Pip off and discourages him.
Been a while since I read the book though. I was always confused with Pip's obsession with gaining rank/wealth, but then again poverty vs wealth is a big theme in Dickens so I guess it is this books manifestation of that.
How many books do you have to read for your fda this year? Is the workload heavy for coursework and write-ups?
