I can say that there aren't enough time for reading, for looking every new word through the dictionary (and I really don't like it). But by degrees I read the book and now I'm ready to depict the characters.
The main character of the book is Pip, whose real name is Philip Pirrip. His is a little boy, an orphan who never said his parent. His Father Philip and mother - Georgiana were dead and their other children - 
Alexander, Bartholomew, Abraham, Tobias, and Roger died too. 
Now poor child lives with his sister and her husband. His sister has got black hair and eyes.She is tall and bony. She is more than twenty years ilder then her young brother. Pip tells that his sister is somewhat plein and he doesn't understand how Joe Gargery, the blacksmith, a handsome man, "Joe was a fair man, with curls of flaxen hair on each side of his smooth face, and with eyes of such a very undecided blue that they seemed to have somehow got mixed with their own whites" could marry her. 
Very often Pip converse with Joe, the little boy helps him with good words and advices. 
In the first chapter of the "Great Expextation" Pip meets in the graveyard a strange man. 
The author tells us that he is a fearful man, all in coarse grey, with a great iron on his leg. Pip is afraid of this man. This man is indefferent towards little orphan and is rude with him.
I will read more and more and will try to ubderstand who ia who in this book!

Great expextation about "Great expectations" 



Last year I read a "Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens. Then I already understood that he is a great writer and his creations are really interesting. Looking forward to reading the next book wrote by one of the most famous English writers, I expect that it will be full of emotions, interesting things and sentiments.
I read that the protagonist of the masterpiece is a little boy who is approximately six years old and whose parents died. He doesn’t have friends and very rarely visited cemetery and especially his parents’ graves.
I don’t know what happen later, but I am sure that this book will be very, very helpful for me and my fellows. I think it, for sure contains some moral, it will teach us, and soon I will discover – what exactly.
For sure, it will teach us new words, as every book that we read. It’s very important, but the most important thing we study from the book, is how to behave in a difficult situation, how to look at life, what attitude we must have towards the other people.
So, I think that I will enjoy reading this book and I will get pleasure of it.

My impressions! 
At last I READ the book. I perceive mixt feelings. In the beginning of the hero's story I felt curiosity, it was interesting for me to know from what material the monster is made. Soon I was sorry of Frankenstein's brother anf certainly of the narrator too. When I read a Victor's creation confession, I understood that he is unfortunate and he needs to be happy, to be loved, like every human being. Then, I felt sorrow because of monster's misery. But wnen he became cruel and murdered Klerval and Elizabeth, whom I really liked, I became confused. 
I understand that Victor is a kind of criminal, of monster, because he was obligate to make his creation happy, to gift him a good life, not only life. Victor is like a cuckoo who leaves his children when they are little and helpless. It was interestind for a scientist to create a human being, a smart man who can reflect, who is strong as nobody from people. But it is irresponsibly, as I already wrote. 
In the next chapter of Mary Shalley's Frankenstein Victor died. He is completely exhausted, but he died without hatred. He wants to murder his foe, but he has no energy, no power. The death is coming and in the  WALTON's discussion with Frankenstein's creation I saw that he is really unfortunate and he dreams about the death, because every day brings him misery. 
I liked this book, but I really mixed my sentiment of sorrow. I think that if somebody imagins himself in the monster's shoes, he will understand that you are unfortunate when you are all alone. When you don't have an interlocutor, a person who love you, or somebody else. This book shows to everybody that we must be happy of that we have, because every day we live, not just survive. We must be pleased of that!!!!
