When David Copperfield is born, he is welcomed into a loving family--a mother who adores her son and a dear, darling nurse, who loves him like her own child. But when David's mother marries Mr. Murdstone, everything changes drastically. David is sent away to boarding school, his mother passes away, and then Mr. Murdstone sends David to London, so that the ten-year-old can earn his own livelihood. But David never gives up! Tackling his issues with maturity and courage, David Copperfield fights the odds in his life, with the few people who love and care for him, till he finally achieves his rightful place in the world.

Om forfatteren
Charles Dickens, perhaps the best British novelist of the Victorian era, was born in Portsmouth, Hampshire, England on February 7, 1812. His happy early childhood was interrupted when his father was sent to debtors' prison, and young Dickens had to go to work in a factory at age twelve. Later, he took jobs as an office boy and journalist before publishing essays and stories in the 1830s. His first novel, The Pickwick Papers, made him a famous and popular author at the age of twenty-five. Subsequent works were published serially in periodicals and cemented his reputation as a master of colorful characterization, and as a harsh critic of social evils and corrupt institutions. His many books include Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, Bleak House, Great Expectations, Little Dorrit, A Christmas Carol, and A Tale of Two Cities. Dickens married Catherine Hogarth in 1836, and the couple had nine children before separating in 1858 when he began a long affair with Ellen Ternan, a young actress. Despite the scandal, Dickens remained a public figure, appearing often to read his fiction. He died in 1870, leaving his final novel, The Mystery of Edwin Drood, unfinished.
