Description:

Published alongside Armando Iannucci's new film, The Personal History of David Copperfield, starring Dev Patel, Hugh Laurie, Peter Capaldi, Tilda Swinton and Ben Whishaw. Introduced by Armando Iannucci.

In a wildly eventful life, David Copperfield moves from the cruelty of his stepfather's care to the heights of success as a beloved and respected novelist. On his journey through Victorian society, he endures bitter treatment as a labourer, wins the approval of his formidable aunt, finds himself an education - and a career, falls in love, and expands his circle of acquaintance to include true, false and marvellously eccentric friends.

Dickens's own favourite among his novels, The Personal History of David Copperfield is a classic of comedy and tragedy that never ceases to surprise and delight.
