Who Is Miss Havisham
Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, Nor hell a fury like a woman scorned. -William Congreve.
Betrayed, broken hearted, and unable to move on from the past is how Miss Havisham first appears to us in Great Expectations. Although wealthy, immensely so, she is deeply unhappy proving that money did not buy her joy. Living in a large house with the ironic name of Satis House, barricaded by fences and walls, she leads a lonely life, one of nearly complete seclusion with her only company being her family whom she doesn't particularly care for. Despite this loneliness, Ms. Havisham prefers to be alone never accepting the company of others outside of her family, except for Pip. Miss Havisham is very much so like Rapunzel except she is locked
