"He had studied English literature--books like GREAT EXPECTATIONS. 
When I too came to do the same thing, I saw how so many things had ended

the scenes became part of our daily lives and language; how all this 
spoke to me about the kind of family my father had come from and the 
changes he had been through before I was in this world."
 Michael Rosen, "Memories and Expectations".
