I am afraid I was ashamed of the dear good fellow, – I know I was ashamed of him, – when I saw that Estella stood at the back of Miss Havisham’s chair, and that her eyes laughed mischievously.
– Charles Dickens
Great Expectations, Chapter 13. When young Pip and Joe meet Miss Havisham in her great house, Pip is embarrassed by Joe’s working class speech and mannerisms. Following his visit to the upper class Satis House, he has now become more conscious of social class and position.
