Which Dickens novel features Miss Havisham?

Which Dickens novel features Miss Havisham? Great Expectations. Charles Dickens introduced Miss Havisham in his 1861 novel Great Expectations, where she is a wealthy, reclusive woman living in the decaying Satis House.

Miss Havisham was abandoned by her fiancé, Compeyson, on her wedding day. She responds by stopping time inside her home: the clocks remain fixed, the wedding feast is left to decay, and she continues wearing her wedding dress years later. She raises Estella to break men's hearts, using her as an instrument of revenge.

A common mix-up is to associate Miss Havisham with Bleak House or Little Dorrit, two other Dickens novels with memorable eccentric characters and dark social settings. She is not merely inspired by the Gothic atmosphere of Dickens's fiction; she is specifically a major character in Great Expectations. Dickens's novel was first published in serial form from December 1860 to August 1861.
