David Copperfield by Charles Dickens is one of the greatest masterpieces of British literature. Brilliant and sparkling, this book is a stunning portrait of internal psychological processes. This is the story of a boy orphaned at an early age who must struggle and work hard to make his way and find an identity in the world. Dickens gave us also a social commentary on Victorian life in England during the 19th century. He explored avant-garde themes related to the plight of the weak, equality in marriage, class and wealth, moral virtues, broken families...

It's a tale of the best & worst of human nature & conditions, of abuse, scheming, hatred, and arrogance but also of humility, kindness & generosity. It is a story of loss & redemption. This wonderful classic will keep you enraptured by its ever-changing script. 

Illustrations by J.W. ORR.


Industry Reviews

"In David Copperfield he (Dickens) suddenly unseals a new torrent of truth, the truth out of his own life."

- G. K. Chesterton, Appreciations and Criticisms of the Works of Charles Dickens, 1906

"Some common feeling - youth, gaiety, hope - envelops the tumult and invests the most perfect of all the Dickens novels with an atmosphere of beauty."

- Virginia Woolf, essay "David Copperfield", in The Common Reader (1925)

"Dickens often tried to explain this painful state of mind by returning to David Copperfield, a novel to which he was unusually attached during composition [...] although he called it his "favorite"."

- Annette R. Federico, "David Copperfield and the Pursuit of Happiness," Victorian Studies, vol. 46, no. 1, 2003, pp. 69-95. Source: http://www.jstor.org/stable/3830108
