ESTELLA

Estella is a young orphan like protagonist Pip but unlike him whom was raised by his sister wife of blacksmith Joe Gargery, Estella was raised and adopted by wealthy Miss Havisham to become a lady. Estella is a very manipulative attracted women, who comes across very abrupt due from the upbringing of Miss Havisham.
Miss Havisham raised Estella for her revenge of being jilted at the alter, MH used Estella to torment men and break their hearts. Estella had her ability ti express her emotion and interact normally within the world. Estella eventually marries the cruel nobleman Drummle instead of marrying kindhearted commoner Pip. Drummle treats Estella harshly and makes her life miserable for many years. Dickens has used Estellas life to reinforce the idea that one's happiness and well-being are not deeply connected to one's social position: had Estella been poor, she might have been better off.
