The intricate use of expectations, in the case of psychology and as the potential great endowment, is extremely well done. Expectation rarely ever come about as expected. At each potential turning point of the book, the reader may expect the a change of circumstances, while Dickens never obliges or at least not right away. The way the story unfolds, the various links between characters, create a tale is exceptional. The character buildup is amazing. Although the language and descriptive factors are hard to relate to in the 21th century, the book just requires the reader to slow down to adapt to it. Some sarcasm is not readily understood.
