El protagonista de Grandes esperanzas, Philip Pirrip, Pip, es un huérfano que vive con su hermana y su cuñado y que, mientras visita la tumba de sus padres, conoce a un preso que ha escapado de un barco-prisión. Pip decide prestarle ayuda y tras varios días unos soldados encuentran al convicto mientras pelea con otro preso que también se había dado a la fuga. Dos años después, Pip es enviado a la casa de la señorita Havisham para entretenerla, donde conoce a Estella, de quien se enamora perdidamente. Pasado otro tiempo, el protagonista, que estaba preparándose con su cuñado y amigo Joe para trabajar como herrero, recibe la visita del señor Jaggers, quien le informa de que tiene un benefactor que le brinda la oportunidad de estudiar y convetirse en un caballlero. Novela de aprendizaje sobre la amistad, el amor y el ascenso social, considerada una semiautobiografía del autor, Grandes esperanzas es uno de los libros más importantes de Charles Dickens.
