David Copperfield - Special Edition (Includes Frank Reynolds Illustrations)

“I am born.”

Written in the first person, David Copperfield is perhaps the most autobiographical of Dickens’s novels. The author never forgot his early degradation, as it seemed to him, in the blacking warehouse at Hungerford Stairs, or quite forgave those who sent him to an occupation he so loathed.

This long, unforgettable, bitter-sweet eighth novel from Dickens features an unforgettable gallery of characters, including David’s cruel stepfather Mr. Murdstone, the unctuous Uriah Heep, the amiable Mr. Micawber, whom Dickens based on his father, and Dora Spenglow, whom David marries and calls his "child-wife.”

"The most perfect of all the Dickens novels."—Virginia Woolf
