David Copperfield

One of the best novels by Charles Dickens, his "favorite child" and largely autobiographical work full of the charm of old good England.
David Copperfield is born a few months after his father's death. He begins his life under the care of a kind nanny and surrounded by his mother's love. However, even as a boy, he encounters envy and malice and is forced to learn about human cruelty, sorrow, and disappointment. Overcoming obstacles and enduring numerous hardships is aided by David Copperfield's purity of soul, clarity of thought, and greatness of spirit. The hero of the novel tells about himself, his beloved people, and the events that happened to them.

"David Copperfield" is a fantasy, sometimes cheerful and sometimes touching, on the theme of life, composed of the memories and wishes of a person with a vivid imagination and warm feelings. And its entertainment... is captivating." — Somerset Maugham
