远大前程

简介

远大前程，始于一次与逃犯的偶遇，止于那位逃犯重新被捕

而主人公在经历大起大落后，也终于放弃这种远大前程的梦想，重新开始找寻以前的美德，开始了暂新的生活

至于结局，好像主人公不小心当了一个备胎…

一些想法

此书让我想起了《红与黑》里的主角-Jelien，Jelien也是向往着远大前程的生活，可惜，他没有本书主人公Pip的运气，只能靠自己拼搏。而且由于做错了决定，也弄得不能善终。

而本书中的主人公则明显运气更好，在一次偶然的机会帮助了一个逃犯Magwitch后，他获得了他的资助，从此就有了资本去追求更高端的生活，不用为财富担心，不用苦心的提高地位，一切都是因为他的幸运。

当然，最终，主人公也算是洗尽铅华，重新过上平淡的生活了，并且相隔许久后还重新抱得美人归，比之Jelien的结局又不知道好了多少倍

还有一点，此书的结局也让我颇有怨念，总感觉主角被迫当了一个备胎，在作者的笔下，具有美好品质的Beddy嫁给了主角老实的姐夫Joe Gargery

而主角，在历经辛苦，终于成为一个成熟而又有魅力的男人后，却仍然是接受了傲慢，刻薄的Estella

相比好友Herbert与Clara的稳定爱情，主角实在是过于凄惨，长时间的单身待遇，仰慕女神，但是从不被女神放入眼中，更可恨的是，眼中的女神宁愿嫁给一个混球也不愿靠近主角，多让人伤心

最终，在Estella遭遇生活的不幸后，又想重回主角的怀抱，或许这就是外国版本的找个老实人嫁了吧！

PS：在当今时代，最终主角的行为确实让我想到了一句话当然是选择原谅她，眼前尽是保护色…

Introduction

Great Expectations，starting from an occasional encounter with a fugitive，the end was when the fugitive was re-arrested.

After experiencing ups and downs, Pip finally given up the dream of the Great Expectations, and start to begin a new life with the old virtues.

At the end, as if Pip accidentally became a backup

Some thoughts

This book reminds me of the 《The Red And The Black》, and the Jelien.

Jelien was also longing for the Great Expectations, but unfortunately, he did not has the luck like Pip’s.

All he can do was rely on his own hard work, and because of the wrong decision, he lose his life, became a tragedy.

Compared with Jelien’s life, Pip’s luck was obviously better.

After he helped a fugitive named Magwitch, he got his funding.

Since then, he start a new luxurious life, spending Magwitch’ money.

It was all because of his good luck.

Of course, in the end, Pip was restarted a plain life.

But compared to the outcome of Jelien’, Pip’ was a thousand times better.

The outcome of this book also makes me quite resentment, because Pip was forced to be a backup of the Estella.

How could this be!

He should live with Beddy, because Beddy had some good virtues, but Beddy was married to his honest half-brother named Joe Gargery.

And Pip was still love Estella, the arrogant and mean women.

Pip’ good friends, Herbert and Clara’s love was stable, but Pip’ love was too miserable.

Single for a long time, his Goddess married to someone else, and finally had a forgive hat.

Maybe for Estella, she was look for good person to have married, and finally succeed.
