Dickens' purpose in writing Great Expectations was to reflect the literary technique of realism. The story was written in connection to his own life. When Dickens was young, his family went through financial difficulties and he wanted to change his life. He was inspired by the times he lived in; England in those days of the early 1800s was a very bad place to live when you could not pay a debt you were held in prison until it was paid.
