Tone is a literary device being used to show how the novel is being written. Steinbeck is being sympathetic towards all of his characters, but he’s not going to invent an happy ending for any of them.

Magwitch is another of the limited number of characters in Great Expectations who grow through time. He is crucial to the development of the plot as he is the unnamed benefactor behind Pip’s sudden change in circumstances. Furthermore, because he insists on secrecy, Magwitch’s structural role in the novel is to enable both Pip and the reader to be misled into assuming that Miss Havisham is the benefactor and, more importantly, into assuming that it is Miss Havisham who has ultimately destined Pip to be betrothed to Estella.
