A retelling of Charles Dickens · 1850

David Copperfield

“David Copperfield tells his own life: a happy infancy ended by a cruel stepfather, child labour in a London warehouse, flight to an eccentric aunt, school, love, work as a writer — and the friends and enemies, Micawber, Steerforth, Uriah Heep, Peggotty and Agnes, who shape him.”
