Miss Havisham, a wealthy and eccentric spinster, also exerts a significant influence on Pip's life. Through her manipulation and the emotional turmoil she inflicts upon him, Miss Havisham molds Pip into a young man who is discontented with his humble origins and aspires to attain a higher social standing. Her ward, Estella, further complicates Pip's feelings by captivating his heart and fueling his desire to become a gentleman worthy of her affections. Another pivotal character in Pip's journey is Joe Gargery, his kind-hearted and humble brother-in-law.

His unconditional love and unwavering support offer Pip a sense of grounding amidst the chaos and uncertainties of his rapidly changing circumstances.- He grapples with questions of identity, ambition, and morality. The characters he encounters serve as mirrors that reflect different facets of his own character, forcing him to confront his flaws, biases, and aspirations. Through these encounters, Pip undergoes a transformative journey of self-discovery and growth, ultimately realizing the true meaning of wealth, success, and happiness.
