page 28

on page 28, Charles dickens describes Pip's house hold on Christmas day. on this page Mrs. Joe clears the table and offers her guests some dessert and decides to get out some pork pie. as the guests, Joe, and Pip sit at the table Mrs. Joe nears the pantry to retrieve the pie. the deception given of Pip while he sits at the table reminds me of some of the descriptions given to the man in"A Tell Tale Heart" Pip is described as very nervous because we find out earlier in the book that Pip has stolen the pie to give to the convict. then as the cops come at the end of the page, that really reminded me of "a Tell Tale Heart" because the main characters in each of the stories become more and more nervous as time goes on and as the chanches of them being found out increses.
