About the book

Charles Dickens's David Copperfield follows its protagonist from a difficult childhood through education, work and adulthood. Along the way David encounters memorable figures including Betsey Trotwood, Mr Micawber and Uriah Heep. Often regarded as one of Dickens's most autobiographical novels, the book explores resilience, love, ambition and personal development. David survives cruel guardians, harsh schooling and financial uncertainty while gradually finding friendship, love and a career as a writer. Filled with memorable characters including Betsey Trotwood, Mr Micawber and Uriah Heep, the novel is both a coming-of-age story and one of Dickens's most personal works.
