An Encounter With Miss Havisham

By Rosemary Hill

Part of Stony Live.

Come and meet Miss Havisham, the famous jilted bride from the 1861 novel “Great Expectations” by Charles Dickens”. Why has the bridegroom been so cruel? Why has she never taken off her wedding dress? Why has the wedding breakfast and cake been left in place for years and why have all the clocks stopped at twenty to nine? Miss Havisham has adopted the beautiful young girl, Estella. What plans does she have for her in the future?

You can ask Miss Havisham all these questions yourself and she will unravel the terrible tale of deception and revenge.
