Great Expectations: connections with picture

    As strange as it may sound I think that the character Harry Potter is very similar to Pip. Not only is Harry left with his only surviving relative petunia, who is a strict harsh woman much like Mrs. Joe. Harry also must live a very humble life in a cupboard under the stairs and then is suddenly sent into the dazzling world of magic. Pip is also given a new life when his benefactor helps him move to London.
    Pip and Harry also have many near death experiences that make them reflect on there decisions and their friendships. Both characters also have very strong friendships. Pip has Joe and Herbert, while Harry has Ron and Hermione. One individual evil is also present in each story. For Pip it's Compyson and for Harry its Voldemort.
