Information

Cast out by his cruel stepfather to the brutal boarding school Salem House, young David Copperfield quickly learns that he must fight for a better life. After discovering his mother has died while he has been away, David is left all alone in the world and is sent to work in his stepfather's factory. He decides his only option is to run away. He escapes London and finds his way to Dover. Once there he hopes to be taken in by his only known relative, his eccentric Aunt Betsy Trotwood. But will he ever be able to find the love and security he needs?

I love all of Dickens Jo Brand I would always prefer to go get another Dickens off the shelf than pick up a new book by someone I've not read yet Donna Tartt He's a marvellous writer ... He's very, very good William Trevor Charles Dickens is one of the giants of English literature Sunday Express Nothing seems more quintessentially British than Charles Dickens The Times My all-time favourite author is Charles Dickens Lesley Pearse There's only one Charles Dickens Nick Hornby
