In chapter 26, Pip is having dinner at Mr. Jaggers house when he calls his servant over "'I'll show you a wrist. Molly, let them see your wrist.' . . . The last wrist was much disfigured - deeply scarred and scarred across and across." (228) I was very confused on why Mr. Jaggers did that and if that relates to the story in any way. I mean, I get that he's showing that she has gained strength from battling through whatever gave her those scars but does it have to do with the story?
My question:
How do the scars on Mr. Jaggers' servant's wrist signify and how does it relate to the rest of the book?

I was wondering this too, great job, I can tell you really understand this novel:)
ReplyDeletewell when you add the other part of the quote and how he talks abouthow strong her wrist are now i think show how even though she was injured in he wrist she has made a comeback and now they are stronger than before. and this might apply back to pip and maybe he will be hurt or lose something and he will have to fight to get itback and it might become better than before.
