【孤星血淚】簡介
《孤星血淚》因情節結構緊湊,而被視為狄更斯最傑出的小說之一。故事的主人翁是一位出生貧困的孤兒,小說敍述了匹普三個階段的人生。匹普小時候跟著姊夫學習鐵匠的技能。有一天,他在雇主家中邂逅了雇主的養女艾絲黛拉而陷入情網,但艾絲黛拉對貧窮的匹普不屑一顧,於是他立志要擠進上流社會。
故事的二階段即是描繪匹普如何擠身進紳士的圈子;第三階段則是匹普對這樣的社會與人生的領悟。在愛、忠誠和良心的面前,財富和社會地位顯得虛幻不實。這本小說多次改編成電影、電視劇及舞台劇,至今仍受到廣大讀者的喜愛。

原作者:Charles Dickens
狄更斯被認為是英國最偉大的小說家。他於1812年出生在英國一個貧窮的家庭。他從12歲就開始在工廠工作,以換取微薄的薪水,這段經歷讓他備嚐艱辛與屈辱,但也因為這樣的經歷,狄更斯擅長描繪英國中下階層的社會,深刻反映出複雜的社會現實。
狄更斯代表作包括《孤雛淚》、《孤星血淚》、《小氣財神》等。1870年,狄更斯不幸病逝,享年58歲。
