Great Expectations Page: 470

I continue to enjoy Dickens. Such good stuff! Great Expectations might actually go on an all-time favorites list. Dickens is such a thorough moralist that he is actually refreshing. He doesn’t preach a particular creed but delineates manners and sensitivities with such feeling that you instinctively root for right. He doesn’t preach a system but described human interaction so that you realize the need for self-sacrifice, for character, for courage in everyday life. Melodramatic? Yes! But human too.

I had an absurdly busy day keeping up with the boys (who were tons of fun BTW) and posting stuff for sale on Craigslist.

All of the below are available for sale over there. Or here if you simply can’t live without it. Only one of the things pictured is more than $50. Which is it?
