David Copperfield

by Charles Dickens

A boy survives a cruel stepfather, a boarding school, and a chaotic apprenticeship to eventually become, more or less, the author who is narrating all of it. Dickens called it his favourite of his own books, and it is the one that reads most like a man quietly settling his accounts with his own childhood. The aunt who takes him in remains one of this whole shelf’s great rescues.
