On page 425, I like the line, "Beyond their dark line there was a ribbon of clear sky, hardly broad enough to hold the large red moon." Knowing that Pip was walking into the marshes due to a threat letter, thus the mood was dark and suspenseful, yet the use of "ribbon" foreshadows a little brightness.
How would Orlick be connected with Magwitch? Because I thought the man in the marshes would have been Compeyson.
Why does Orlick call Pip "wolf"?
On page 443, in the first paragraph, Pip mentions the word "mud" several times. Is that because he does not like mud? Or he feels stuck in the mud (both literally and figuratively)?
On page 443, one man says, "What was that ripple?" and it made me think of that scene in Jurassic Park where the kids and the lawyer are in the car and the water in the cup shakes every few moments because the T-Rex is taking steps.
On page 445, why did the dialogue make Pip and his men uneasy? And Pip even more uneasy? For Pip, I thought it was possibly because it reminded him of when he was common and those who he knew spoke that language (Joe, Orlick)?
Was it really worth it to Magwtich to attack Compeyson, though he would get caught?
