  • I somehow read David Copperfield, which is 600 pages of blah blah. The only thing I remember is this blond douche screwing this innocent cousin of his or something, then dumping her. So her uncle just travels all over looking for her. And he married a girl who cried when she was told to clean up. And marries this girl from his childhood after she dies. I sadly relate(d) to Estella, so I liked Great Expectations.

    I think the way people judge HH in the book, is the authors take on how he would be judged in real life. He is a p*dophile, but also a charming man. How many times are men forgiven in society? He is a likable person to many, and the book reflects that. He gets away with horrible crimes, becuase of people liking him. No consequences, legal or anything. At the end, many even feel sorry for him. Thats just how the world is. Its gross. I cant read the book without wanting to punch him in the face. Not a second where I find him charming. In real life, many girls will be charmed by some guy, and I wont be.
