"David Copperfield" by Charles Dickens is a classic coming-of-age story that narrates the life journey of David Copperfield, a boy who faces numerous challenges and hardships but eventually finds happiness. From the early loss of his father and the cruel treatment by his stepfather to his struggles with poverty and the quest for identity, David’s life is a mix of joy, pain, love, and betrayal. His story is populated with vivid characters—both malevolent and kind-hearted—who shape his understanding of the world and influence his development from a naive boy into a mature writer. Set against the backdrop of 19th century England, this novel not only offers a detailed exploration of Victorian society, including its class structure and industrial conditions, but it also champions the values of perseverance, morality, and true kindness.
