Audiobook 馃帶 Definitely better than A Tale of Two Cities 馃樀鈥嶐煉� The beginning and the ending were the best parts, I really liked the story of little David more.

Quando, nel 1850, pubblica David Copperfield, Charles Dickens offre ai suoi lettori per la prima volta un romanzo da lui scritto in prima persona e, dietro la storia del giovane protagonista, quelle che si possono leggere sono a volte le vicende personali dell’autore stesso. Ma ciò che si viene delineando attraverso i primi dolorosi anni, il duro apprendistato di vita in fabbrica, e poi la fuga e il vagabondare picaresco del giovane Copperfield, è soprattutto un romanzo di formazione in cui il personaggio si fa biografo di se stesso.
