Mister Pip

Jones, Lloyd 1955- (Author).

Summary: "Thirteen-year-old Matilda lives on a copper-rich island that has been shattered by war, from which the teachers have fled along with everyone else. Only one white man chooses to stay behind - the eccentric Mr. Watts, object of much curiosity and scorn. He sweeps out the ruined schoolhouse ans steps in to teach the children when there is no one else, and his only lessons consist of reading from his battered copy of Great Expectations, a book by his friend Mr. Dickens."--Book jacket.
