David Copperfield narrates his adventures in his journey from an unhappy and impoverished childhood to the discovery of his vocation as a successful novelist. The novel is sometimes categorized in the bildungsroman genre. It is also partially autobiographical. It was published as a serial in 1849 and 1850 and then as a book in 1850. I love the interesting and eclectic set of characters in this novel and the inclusion of social commentary without bashing the reader over the head with it.
