This version of Miss Havisham is an even more pitiable character than the original. The sentences are as long and monotonous as her existence. It seems impossible that he would return to her and accept her. Surely, no woman could be this deluded or weak. Why should she accept him back? Could you strip the language back and revive her? She’s slowly suffocating in this piece and I can’t help but feel a sense of dread in the ending. Why shouldn’t she find freedom in accepting that he’s gone. A man never made things better and you can’t recreate the past. The past cannot be a resounding echo in a lonely chamber.
