David Copperfield - Charles Dickens's Epic

Date of Review:  Jul 30, 2004
The Bottom Line: A wonderfully written, though long, novel, very much Dickens and very much a necessary classic book to read.
Review: I call David Copperfield Dickens's Epic because comprising of a whopping 821 pages in The Modern Library's paperback edition (that's 64 chapters total), without the notes and commentary to guide you through the novel, it takes a while to complete...

David Copperfield (Not the magician)

Date of Review:  Mar 9, 2001
The Bottom Line: David Copperfield is a book that everyone should read at least once
Review: This piece at first appears quite ominous due to its enormous size. Surprisingly enough it moves mush faster than you might at first expect. David Copperfield serves as a type of autobiography of Charles Dickens. Keeping this in mind is extremely...

Dickens' definitive "David"

Date of Review:  Oct 10, 2000
Review: This first appeared as a response to a review of "David Copperfield," but when I submitted the review, the system said that since it was a long reply, perhaps I should redo it as an opinion. So I am.


One reviewer called this definitive...

One of my favourite novels by Dickens

Date of Review:  Aug 8, 2003
The Bottom Line: Definitely read it. 1000 pages is no big deal- I finished reading it (unabridged) in three days. I brought it wherever I went and read it whenever I had time.
Review: David Copperfield is a beautifully-written first person account of Copperfield's trials, travails, and successes from his birth to the prime of his life. The novel's plot isn't the most spectacular in the world but the one's affection for the...

Get on with it!

Date of Review:  May 2, 2002
The Bottom Line: A story of a young man and his hard life, basically a rags to riches novel.
Review: Now, I am not very old, just 14 and it is almost 6 months since i finished the book, but personally I don?t like it.

The book David Copperfield is a story of a young man's life. It is how he overcame all the struggle and strife of his life...

We just finished this book last night!

Date of Review:  Oct 4, 2000
Review: I have been reading to my four children since before there were four children! In fact, we just finished David Copperfield last night. I had always wanted to read the book myself, since it is considered a children's classic.

It was fast...

Date of Review:  Nov 5, 2000
Review: There is nothing new to speak about Dickens.He is one of the most prolific writers that England ever had.But what makes David coperfield a treat in reading is the fact that this book is partly autobiographical in nature.
Look through the eyes of...

The only Dickens book I have ever been able to stomach

Date of Review:  Mar 3, 2000
Review: This book is, as the title says, the only work by Dickens I have ever been able to stomach, and one of the few I have had the determination to sit through. I have heard many compare this book to Great Expectations, and while I admit that the two...

Not Really for Children

Date of Review:  Oct 14, 2000
Review: Charles Dickens' David Copperfield is one of the great classics of English literature, a book which a generation ago I would have assumed all educated speakers of English had read. Now, however, there are so many books to read, that even a great...

Date of Review:  Nov 19, 2000
Review: Frankly this isn't the most exciting book in the world to read, but the story is very intriguing. Basically this story is about David Copperfield and his life. It begins with his birth to his life with wife and children. The book would be much more...
