In chapters 36 through 44, one thing I don't understand is when Pip is talking to Magwitch about his life and how he's been hiding and running from people. Magwitch says " Dear boy and Pip's comrade. I am not a-going fur to tell you my life, like a song or a sroty-book. But to give it to you short and handy, I'll put it at once into a mouthful of English. In jail and out of jail, in jail and out of jail, in jail and out of jail. There, you've got it. That's my life pretty much, down to such times as I got shipped off, arter Pip stood my friend."(345) What I'm not sure about is, why he keeps hiding? That is all Pip and Herbert were asking, but he never gave them an answer. So, what is he really hiding?
