Synopsis "Grandes esperanzas (in Spanish)"

Edición conmemorativa de la gran novela de aprendizaje de Charles Dickens. Esta es la historia de Pip, un joven huérfano y miedoso cuyo humilde destino se ve agraciado por un benefactor inesperado que le cambia la vida al convertirlo en caballero. Grandes esperanzas es una maravillosa novela de aprendizaje, con una inolvidable galería de personajes que reflejan toda una época y, al mismo tiempo, llaman a la reflexión sobre las constantes de la condición humana. Esta edición especial, publicada cuando se cumplen ciento cincuenta años de la muerte del autor, no puede faltar en ninguna biblioteca personal con vocación de permanencia. Sobre el autor:«Dickens dominará toda la Inglaterra del siglo XIX; él solo ocupará el pináculo.»G. K.Chesterton «Cuando leemos cualquier escrito marcadamente individual tenemos la impresión de ver un rostro tras la página[...] En el caso de Dickens veo [...] el rostro de un hombre que siempre está luchando contra algo, pero que pelea abiertamente y no siente temor, el rostro de un hombre que se enfada con generosidad; en otras palabras, de un liberal del siglo XIX, una inteligencia libre.»George Orwell

View Author's Page
Charles Dickens (February 7, 1812 - June 9, 1870) was born in Portsmouth and was the eldest son of a Royal Navy clerk. At twelve, his father's imprisonment for debt forced him to work in a blacking factory. His education was sporadic: he taught himself shorthand, worked as a clerk in a law office, and eventually became a parliamentary correspondent for the Morning Chronicle.

Coming from a humble family, "good old Charles" did not receive formal education until he was nine, and was heavily criticized by the critics of the time for being too self-taught. His life took an unexpected turn with his father's imprisonment for debts, moving his family to live with him in jail, allowed at that time by British laws. At the age of 12, he was already considered fit to start working in a dye factory. Although his family's situation had improved, his mother insisted he keep working there, inspiring him to write one of his masterpieces, David Copperfield.

His articles, later collected in Scenes from London Life by "Boz" (1836-1837), were very successful, and with the appearance in 1837 of The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, Dickens became a true publishing phenomenon. Novels such as Oliver Twist (1837-1839), Nicholas Nickleby (1838-1839), and Barnaby Rudge (1841) gained enormous popularity, as did some travel chronicles, such as Pictures from Italy (1846). With Dombey and Son (1846-1848) he began his mature period, of which good examples are David Copperfield (1849-1850), his first novel in the first person and his favorite, in which he developed some autobiographical episodes; Bleak House (1852-1853); Little Dorrit (1855-1857), A Tale of Two Cities (1859), Great Expectations (1860-1861), and Our Mutual Friend (1864-1865). He died at Gad's Hill, his country house in Higham, in the county of Kent.

Fue mi primer libro de Dickens y la verdad, súper buena decisión. Pip es un gran personaje, le agarras cariño rápido y todo lo que le pasa es un viaje genial. Pero el que me robó el corazón fue Joe, un personaje increíble. En serio, el libro está buenísimo.
